I've never used PXE + Kickstart so I can't say for sure this is the
problem, but I use PXE to boot diskless worker nodes in a cluster and
when I set up pxelinux for these it said that all the pxelinux.cfg/*
files had to be named either "default" or a name based on some
fraction of the booting host's IP number in hexdecimal (eg
"C0A82A04").

HTH,
-Brett.
