This isn't really kernel related, but if you have problems with kickstart on a floppy, this is a bug that I have reported to RedHat. It doesn't seem to show up on their bug tracking list though. :-(
If you know your way around making an initrd.img etc, this patch fixes the problem (apply in redhat-5.1/i386/misc/src):
