We have the same problem and get around it by putting the dns servers
in /etc/cobbler/dhcp.template. You need to statically define the
subnets via the normal isc dhcpd methods for each network. Anaconda
(network-manager actually) will pick them up and write them out to
resolve.conf during the intstall. Then everything works as expected.
Its pretty simple once you wrap your head around it.
