James, Thanks. Appears that http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.3-Manual/custom-guide/s1-kickstart2-startinginstall.html is wrong. I had tried what you suggested back in 7.2 but it was broken badly. Appears the code got fixed in 7.3 but the documentation has not been updated. ks=http:<server>:/<path> The installation program will look for the kickstart file on the HTTP server <server>, as file <path>. The installation program will use DHCP to configure the Ethernet card. For example, if your HTTP server is server.example.com and the kickstart file is in the HTTP directory /mydir/ks.cfg, the correct boot command would be ks=http:server.example.com:/mydir/ks.cfg. I'll go submit something to bugsplat on the doc being incorrect.
