Hi Jasper,
Your pointer has led me to the problem - it seems that the substitution
$ip_address no longer works in my kickstart files :(

What is the "new" substitution for an IP address?
That would be $interfaces["eth0"]["ip_address"] for eth0. For
the new
Cobbler, there's been quite some work on the networking setup. Maybe
using the new network-snippets (see the provided sample kickstart) would
suit your needs as well. Out of the box it can: configure interfaces,
nameservers, gateways, hostnames, VLANs, bonding and interface renaming.
