We went from systemimager, that still worked fine on CentOS 6, to a kickstart automated install on CentOS 7 after checking several options. The problems I encountered with systemimager, is that the 2.6.x kernel used in them boel and suplied kernels, does not load the 3.x kernel modules and including a 3.x kernel into systemimager was *A LOT* of python patching all over the place. The 2.6 and 2.4 kernel version numbers were hardcoded into the scripts as far as I can remember. Moreover systemimager has not been maintained for some time now if i'm not mistaken. so we went for alternatives and finally decided that a simple kickstart of less than 100 lines would suffice in our case.
