I'm running the command "yum -y update" from a script called from the the post section of my kickstart config file, and I get the following error:
Installing : kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.i686 185/378 grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template
After the install, if I log in to the system and remove that RPM and then re-install it with "yum install kernel", the grub.conf file is updated correctly. Any ideas why this might be failing from kickstart? Anyone else seen this?

Yes, it's a known issue:

Thanks, the workarounds described in the bugzilla issues did indeed fix the problem, and this will be fixed and CentOS 6.1 when it becomes available.

In the mean time, I just manualy add the grub entry for the new kernel and it boots fine (not sure if there are other side effects though).
