My biggest tip is to "yum install system-config-kickstart" (which I
believe Chip mentions).
It can help guide you through the install questions and builds a
kickstart along the way. That's a good way to see what
the various options are (and is a bit easier than reading some of the
docs for the first couple of times -- eventually you
probably won't need the tool).

That's a good tip, but for people who don't have X installed (for
example setting up servers), the GUI based kickstart config tool won't
work. I also had to go through this exercise but soon found a lot of
sites on the net with good sample kickstart files. One thing I want to
add though. If it's possible, setup sometimes like XEN / VMWare /
Virtualbox / QMU / etc to test the CD ISO. It's a pain in the neck to
first create the CD ISO with makeisofs, then burn it to CD, and then
putting it into my test machine to test it.
