It will boot from the install DVD, but the default option on my install DVD is to boot from the HD. So that isn't an issue.

I have created my own install DVD with a custom kickstart

Now I would like to make the system not eject the DVD after
reboot. The machines I am installing on do not have a motorized tray that can automatically pull the DVD back in when a mount command is issued. You have to push the disk in manually. As these machines will be unattended that is not idea.
How can I prevent the installer from ejecting the DVD once
the install is complete?
Thanks!

But won't the systems then just boot from the install DVD? Or are you overriding the BIOS boot order to start the install?
Cheers, Dave
