I had a similar issue; the solution which worked for me was to specify
the ip address, gateway, and netmask:
append initrd=/images/centos-5.2-i386/initrd.img ksdevice=eth0
lang=en_US netmask=255.255.254.0 ip=192.168.62.55 text kssendmac
gateway=192.168.62.40 ks=http://<whatever>
The key bits are "ksdevice=eth0 netmask=255.255.254.0 ip=192.168.62.55
gateway=192.168.62.40 "
This will probably be needed if your environment uses something other
than 255.255.255.0 for a netmask.
