We do not have DHCP addressing for the networks I manage. I wish we
did, but I have written scripts that automatically generate the
kickstart configuration files and manually typing the linux ks=...
lines don't take a lot of time. I wish I didn't have to do that
either, but hey, it works.

The CentOS DVD images (not sure about CD images) have an images
directory that contains a boot.iso file that can be used to net boot
machines. That's the one I used.
Together with a combination of autofs, lighttpd, rsync'ing and cron I
am able to fully support a lab of about 500 machines

Not only that, but you can make a nice small (10Mb) iso image that you
can use to boot from. Great for mounting virtual media in a Dell DRAC
to launch a network install. Here's the docs on how to do it:

Far from it, you can install from CD, DVD, NFS, FTP and HTTP. Google
for kickstart install media to see.
