Hi John,
Anaconda depends on DHCP even if you use static IPs.
I have made some progress on this...
I have posted this on the group but here it is for you anyways (it's rather
long):
I don't read the whole thread before responding to parts of it, and
email arrives out of order, but I have read it now.
I can't really help if you don't try my suggestions.
There are good reasons to snip, and to not top-post. email isn't like
paper mail, you can and should reply to points in context.

Actually I have dhcpd configured for static IP address. Not for a range
of IP addresses to pick from. dhcpd is running. After PXE loads up the
kernel, I think the installer anaconda uses dhcp to again look for the
ks.cfg file. This is after the menu. That's the part which does not
work. That's why I put in the static IP's in my default file under
label 1. Putting the static IP's don't work as well.
What I don't understand is how the BIOS and pxelinux can both get an IP
address, and Anaconda can't.
Have you tried using IPAPPEND instead of ip= on the kernel parameters.
Read syslinux.doc for clarification.
