So I think the step you are missing is to enable pxe_just_once in
/etc/cobbler/settings and then restart cobbler.

With this enabled, a simple wget is appended to the end of the kickstart
which will trigger on the server to set that system to localboot within
the pxe configuration.  This should solve your issue.

This is detailed in the provisioning whitepaper for Satellite 5.3
