Templated kickstart files are processed by the templating program/package Cheetah, so anything you can do in a Cheetah template can be done to a kickstart template. Learn more at http://www.cheetahtemplate.org/learn.html
+When working with Cheetah, be sure to escape any shell macros that look like "$(this)" with something like "\$(this)" or errors may show up during the sync process.

Should you want to express larger sections of templating (more that can be decently expressed on the command line), you may want to edit /var/lib/cobbler/ files directly. Keep in mind that changes need to be valid YAML 1.0 syntax and "cobbler sync" should be run after making any changes to those files.
