setting specific route by kickstart

[Tedman Eng]

A host route means you want to route TO a specific host VIA a different
gateway than the default gateway.  You have only specified one machine,
and it's unclear whether you want to route TO or VIA the address you
describe.

In a general sense,

For the kickstart environment: the default route specified in the
kickstart IP configuration would be your host route.  The kickstart
environment only ever contacts one server (your kickstart server), so
there is no difference between a default route and a host route.

For the build target: use %post to add some routing statements to you
startup files, for example to /etc/rc.local
Usually "route add xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
