My Cobbler installation generated a kickstart file with this in the %pre
section which seems to work:

set $(list-harddrives)
d1=$1
d2=$3

cat << EOF > /tmp/partinfo
part /boot --size=100 --ondisk=$d1 --asprimary --fstype=ext3
part pv.01 --size=230110 --ondisk=$d1 --asprimary
etc etc
EOF

It then %includes /tmp/partinfo in the main section.
