(I don't use RH9, nor http for serving the kickstart file; judge the
reliability of this advice for yourself)

Reading TFM at
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/s1-kickstart2-startinginstall.html
the syntax is:

ks=http://<server>/<path> (N.B. no second colon)

Also, try cutting out console=, vga=, network, ip=, root=, rw. The boot
images that ship with RH9 just have:

label ks
  kernel vmlinuz
  append ks initrd=initrd.img


Cheers,
Phil
