ksvalidator - validate kickstart file syntax

Finally, in Redhat 5 there is a tool called ksvalidator and we can use it to validate the syntax of a kickstart file!!

ksvalidator comes with the system-config-kickstart RPM and can be used this way:
system-config-kickstart mykickstartfile.ks

Enjoy.

The invocation should be "ksvalidator mykickstartfile.ks" instead of system-config-kickstart which is just the package name.

Cool tip though - thanks.
