PXE Kickstart works (almost)...

After reading all the previous questions/answers I could find I finally got to 
the point where my PXE/DHCP/TFTP kickstart almost works. I have one machine 
doing PXE/DHCP/TFTP and one handling the RPMS via HTTP.

I know the ks.cfg file works because I can do an install using a floppy and 
passing ks=floppy to the kernel. 

The PXE method works up until the point of getting the second stage. Rather is 
appears that the first stage does not get transferred completely and the 
install fails. If I then proceed with a manual entry of the location of the 
RPM's it tells me it cannot retrieve the first stage.

Anyone have any ideas?

Also, does anyone know why one must enter "linux ks" at the prompt for kernel 
peramters? can I put a config file somewhere as in with the syslinux stuff 
ala pxelinux.cfg/default ?
