How to kickstart from floppy?

still can't get the kickstart to partition automatically.
I get these errors just before the hardware probing
"/lib/kickseed/initrd-kickseed 109: mountfloppy not found"
"lib/kickseed/initrd-kickseed 124: cannot open floppy/ks.cfg"
but the odd part is that the install does read the ks.cfg enough to get
past all the screens up to the partitioning.
any ideas?
