Sorry if I am all wrong but I can't see what's wrong with kickstart 
using
or not DHCP server for installation.

The decision for requesting dhcp is what is in syslinux.cfg (or what
is typed at boot), the magic word "network".

In syslinux.cfg we can have:

to boot using dhcp
------------------
label ks
  kernel vmlinuz
  append network initrd=initrd.img ks=floppy

to boot without dhcp
--------------------
label ks
  kernel vmlinuz
  append initrd=initrd.img ks=floppy
