You will have to mount the ISO file on your HD and open it in an ISO editor (or so is my preference there may be other options) for example Daemon tools has an ISO editor and Vertual drives wich will help in troubleshooting and testing.

I can't help you with the other stuff I'm afraid.

You can add files in iso by copying required files in directory where all files of iso copied, and then make iso out of that using command mkisofs -r -o /tmp/iso_name.iso /dir_which_contain_all_files

you can check by mounting iso file it conatin all files or not using mount -o loop iso_name.iso /mnt

You can add calls of required script in kickstart file.
