This shouldn't require a snippet to configure kdump. In your kickstart template make sure to add the kexec-tools package to your %packages section. In the cobbler distro or profile for your RHEL5 boxes make sure to add "crashkernel=1...@16m" to the kopts. Then make sure to add a line such as "services --enabled kdump" to start it up on boot. If you want to be real fancy you could templatize /etc/sysconfig/kdump and throw it down with the --template-files. Some people seem surprised when you assign things like templates on a per profile basis, but it works like a champ if done properly.
