You can't do that without patching (probably). First of all, the keyword to be passed during installation is not 'ks'. If your ubuntu version support kickstarts and you use them, the keyword is 'kickseed' (or at least was), for preseeds you must use 'url' (probably, don't remember well). Probably, you avoid patching and just append them as extra arguments to kernel for the selected entries, but that probably prevent you from using snippet or any other feature. And you must manage your install & update repos out of cobbler (doing that is a quite different story).
