I tried using the vmlinuz and initrd.img from the /images/pxeboot directory 
and still received the 'boot failed' message.  I also tried using 
diskboot.img with the same results.

If I replace the 4.3 vmlinuz with the 4.2 vmlinuz and keep all the other 4.3 
files, I do not get a 'boot failed' message.  My vmlinuz gets loaded as well 
as the initrd.img then I fail for not finding the ks.cfg file (this 
shouldn't be a problem to fix).  Is there any danger in using the 4.2 
vmlinuz for a 4.3 kickstart?
