Where can the kickstart file be viewed during a kickstart installation?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • The kickstart file is available after a kickstart installation as '/root/anaconda-ks.cfg', but where can the kickstart file be viewed during the kickstart installation ?
  • I removed the file after installation. Does this do any harm to the server?
  • Where is the kickstart file downloaded to by anaconda in RHEL7 during installation? (not final location)

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
