Pre-existing, but ks= should be replaced by inst.ks, as using the inst. prefix is the current preferred way of passing installer-specific options, the legacy syntax is still accepted, however, this may be a subject to future changes - the inst. prefix is supported since fedora 17 and RHEL/CentOS 7 and since we dropped CentOS 6 from the supported distros, we don't need to keep the legacy option :).
Today I learned! :) We can definitely switch to the non-legacy version, and I suspect that if we spent some time on it we might be able to modernize the kickstart file itself a bit as well... -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
