I haven't tried this, but you could create a kickstart file with just one line 
that reads "install" and see if anaconda will take it.  The "install" command 
is the one that tells anaconda to automatically say yes to that question.

If a kickstart file doesn't have all the answers, it asks just the questions 
it needs to.  Say, for example, that you have a kickstart file without 
timezone information; anaconda will use the answers that are present for 
everything else, asking only the one question about timezone configuration.

Perhaps, perhaps not.
