Yep. Several times, in fact.

I really just followed my procedure for netbooting CentOS 5, but 
changed the directory paths.

  0. Set up local http mirror of CentOS 6
  1. Set up tftp server; make CentOS 6 pxe kernel and initrd.img
     available
  2. Use PXE menu to point to right kernel, initrd.img, and boot
     options
  3. Set up DHCP server to point to the correct next-server and
     filename
