Kickstart installs via PXE are pretty easy to set up; you need to make sure that the kernel and initrd from the os/images/pxeboot/ directory (from the install CD or one of the mirrors) are in the right place on your PXE server and put your kickstart file in a place where anaconda can find it (web server, NFS share etc.) Have a look at cobbler[1] - that should help make the mechanics of a PXE setup a little simpler.
