Hi Alex,

If you are going to install Fedora using a kickstart file I recommend
downloading one from the Internet and modifying it to your personal
specifications. It would be too difficult to explain how to write one
from scratch nor would I recommend it since that would be a pretty
difficult task.

As far as putting it somewhere for installation purposes if you have
an external hard drive, thumb drive, etc you can put it there and then
when you pass the kickstart command to the installer you can point it
to your external drive for the kickstart installation.
