You definitely do not need the no_root_squash, especially if you share
it ro.

This may be a red herring.  I would try two things:

1.  Put your kickstart on floppy and use ks=floppy at the boot prompt.

2.  Move the config directory into the redhat directory, so your
syslinux.cfg line will be something like this:
  append ks=nfs:10.2.2.1:/usr/local/export/redhat/config/ks.cfg...
