Yep, something like this in a kickstart file...
$ cat wbel4-rescue-ks.cfg
# Kickstart configuration file RHEL/WBEL 4 Rescue Mode
#
#System language
#
lang en_US.UTF-8
#
#Language modules to install
#
langsupport --default=en_GB.UTF-8 en_GB.UTF-8
#
#System keyboard
#
keyboard uk
#
#System mouse
#
mouse none
#
#Retrieve rescue system from NFS
#
nfs --server=XX.XX.XX.XX --dir=/whitebox/4/en/os/i386
#
#Network information
#
network --bootproto=dhcp
Then in /tftpboot/linux-install/pxelinux.cfg/default
label 3
kernel wbel4/vmlinuz
append initrd=wbel4/initrd.img ramdisk_size=10000 text rescue
ks=nfs:XX.XX.XX.XX:/kickstart/wbe
l4-rescue-ks.cfg
Will.
