alright. i guess i have another minor issue. still with DHCP.
Our LAN's DHCP is handled by Microsft 2003 server. :(( with /21 for DHCP
range (192.168.10.x -> 192.168.17.x)
My query is, can I run a Redhat DHCP on the same LAN segment? How do i make
sure that only my new-server will get IP from Redhat DHCP via PXE and no other
clients will get any from Redhat DHCP. or shall i say, all other machines
will get DHCP from the Windows DHCP , and only the server I want to install
Redhat will get IP from the Redhat DHCP.
thanks in advance.

Sirjune,
Try ksdevice=link or ksdevice=bootif. Those worked for me every time.

I thank you all for the comments, solutions and suggestions.
as of yesterday, I was able to install RHEL5.5 via kickstart using linux
ks=http://192.168xxx.xxx/redhat/ks.cfg dhcptimeout=500
although it still asks me as to which ethernet to use, (eth0..eth5). it
continues afterwards. I tried specifying ksdevice=eth0 and noipv6 but the
installation wont proceed and keeps on coming back to the ipv4 and ipv6
selections.
I will try all the suggestions & options mentioned here.
thanks,
Sirjune

Perhaps - I didn't read the Dell solution as specifying MAC addresses is
sufficient and already available, at least for my requirements (Ethernet
interfaces)
All the best

I notice that without specifying the device MAC address in the config files you
are concerned with, and then later adding additional NICs on the PCIe bus -
results in the PCIe NICs preceding the onboard NICs (eth0 changes to represent
the NIC on the lowest PCIe bus.)
