1) first regular kickstart your "gold" image 2) start another kickstart and use only the %pre part - install dropbear + anyother tools you need - use nettee to clone (in or out) - reboot (to abort the regular kickstart) Another livecd/pxe -> www.sysresccd.org (I haven't used it by it sounds quite usefull too).
