Does the kickstart activate more than one? Unless there are multiple network entries in the kickstart it should only use 1 nic. It's pretty hard to tell without logs though. Grab them from /tmp/*log after an installation has finished and attach them to a bug (as individual text/plain attachments) at https://bugzilla.redhat.com -- Brian C.
