My preferred remote upgrade method boils down to:

#title upgrade
#       root (hd0,0)
#       kernel /vmlinuz ro root=LABEL=/ vnc vncconnect=192.168.15.2 
ip=dhcp upgradeany lang=en_US keymap=us 
method=http://192.168.15.40/mrepo/centos5-x86_64/disc1/ ksdevice=link
#       initrd /initrd.img

I suggest adding links to some supporting documentation.  For example,
you could add a prerequisites section saying this technique or trick
requires the install media available, either on the network or on the
local disk.  Instructions for setting up the install media on the
network can be found in the Installation guide, chapter 2.5 Preparing
for a Network Installation
http://centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/s1-steps-network-installs-x86.html
Instructions for putting the install media on the local disk can be
found in the Installation guide, chapter 2.6 Preparing for a hard drive
Installation
http://centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/ch02s06.html

It looks like the version 5.2 docs are the most recent on the centos.org
site.
