This doesn't work, I think. the 'ksdevice=eth1' or 'ksdevide=link' ways don't work well, because the kickstart process will write MAC addresses to ifcfg-eth* files, and that will just leave headaches to local disk boot.
I don't understand this.
Another problem with this method is: you have to predict which eth? the pxe-booted NIC will be detected as. If there are more than several types of mixed NIC boxes, then this method becomes too cubersome and not applicable.
Cumbersome, maybe, but making a custom kernel for each different installation would be worse.
