Ah! just went through that myself . . .

You have to append "ksdevice=eth0" to the kernel line in whatever boot 
loader you are using.

I'm doing a netboot kickstart using the Redhat tools so my 
/tftpboot/linux-install/pxelinux.cfg/default file includes:

<snip>
label 1
  kernel SL42_64/vmlinuz
  append initrd=SL42_64/initrd.img ramdisk_size=8192 
ks=http://192.168.0.129/nodes-cfg/nodes-ks.cfg ksdevice=eth0
<snip>
