Welcome to the wonderful world of kickstart installations.  I believe 
you will find this link interesting and helpful:

Kickstart is fun.  Hope you enjoy it.  I, myself use it to create custom 
CD sets that I can hand over to nontechnical people at my client sites.  
They can then take pretty much any machine, pop in a CD, turn it on, 
wait 10 minutes, and have a basic CentOS install reboot itself directly 
into a remote XDMCP session with the local desktop server without ever 
picking up the phone to call me.  It's fun watching Linux desktop use at 
my client sites expand all by itself, without any further efforts from 
me.  Bad for the paycheck.  But good for the soul.
