It's the tg3 driver (see lshw output below on same hardware running 
SL55). It's the only network card in the machine.

# lshw -C net

If i boot with the SL6 install DVD and specify ks=<kickstart file> on 
the grub boot screen, the installation also fails to find the kickstart 
file (due to and reverts to a non-kickstart DVD-based install.
ctrl-alt-f2 shows the following errors
getting kickstart file
no network devices in choose network device!
no network drivers for doing kickstart
unable to bring up network

to reiterate, this was a problem in pxe installs in SL53, and working in 
SL55
