Recommended unattend install method for BlueBuild images?
I would like to do a bare metal install on my computers using a custom image built with BlueBuild and have it be completely unattended. Right now I can build an ISO image and write it to a USB drive per documentation. But being relatively new to the Fedora ecosystem, I'm not sure which tool(s) I should be using to a) create the user account info and b) how I can inject or side-car that info into the installation process.
I've used cloud-init in the Ubuntu space. Not sure if that's relevant here. Searching has also turned up Ignition/Butane and Kickstart. It's not clear to me which tool is the best fit for this job.
I tried using Butane to generate an ignition file, and then tried to inject that into the ISO using coreos-installer, but that last part failed - unsurprisingly - since I'm building a Aurora based image.
Any advice, guides, or examples on how to achieve this? I've looked through BlueBuild and uBlue docs and have searched discussions on GitHub, but nothing jumped out at me as the answer.
I appreciate any wisdom here. Thanks!

Solution
Ultimately the answer for Aurora (which I was customizing): Create an ISO / image / USB drive with a volume label of
OEMDRVks.cfg/var/roothome/anaconda-ks.cfg
