What error is the kickstart failing on? Something to check, if installing from CD works fine, but installing from KS fails, then most likely your directory structure is not correct. Also, I've determined that kickstart appears to always want to use eth0/eth1, even if you specify ksdevice=ethx. It will get the KS file using the ethx, and then attempt to use eth0/eth1 to go after the remote rpms. Also ensure that the network switch port you are plugged into is a true DHCP port, with valid routes to the remote rpm machine.
