Are you guys looking at the cobbler and koan products supported by Michael DeHaan and discussed on the cobbler mailing list

cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org

I spent much of yesterday setting up cobbler and while I'm not sure I have it fully working for non-virtualized installs, I know that a Cobbler-supported PXE boot interface comes up on one of my test laptops when I try to pxe boot. I have not yet completed my first cobbler- or koan-based installs, though.

Hey,

I really question what the point in going to setup a PXE server install
on each individual host OS is.

None.  You might want to use the install server which is somewhere in your network though, i.e. something like this:

<bootp file="pxelinux.0" server="$ipaddr" />
