I've been forced to use a hammer (figuratively) to make the eject work 
until I could sort out (not yet) why a smple 'eject' command didn't work 
in the kickstart file.

The commands I've experimented with are at the end of my postinstall 
section:
eject -v cdrom
#eject -v -a on cdrom
#eject -v -r -a on cdrom
#eject -v -r -a on /dev/cdrom

As you can see, for the moment the first is working for me as I want, 
the verbose flag is "just because" and I've not messed with success since.

I'm open to other approaches, I've just been wrapped up in my own efforts.
