hostname won't be set during the %post scriptlet without some help,
but it should be set on reboot just fine. To set it for the sake of
commands in %post (for example, if you need to run cfengine):
hostname `grep HOSTNAME /etc/sysconfig/network |cut -d'=' -f2`
But as the above implies, it should already be configured on reboot.

The only problem now is that it didn't set the hostname. Is there some way
to use something like $hostname in post so I can set all that up?
Perhaps that was what Pablo was trying to tell me? I don't understand how
to process /proc/commandline. Does anyone have an example?
I would be greatly appreciative.

This is not quite complete. And actually, we make a custom boot cd,
with multiple targets that contain the common parameters, so all
that's needed at the boot prompt is target, ip and gateway. You'll
probably need at least this:
boot: linux ks=http://url_of_kickstart_file ip=... gateway=...
netmask=... dns=...
