Well, it seems that installation was completed. But not in the way that I had requested to! Look at the configuration of my test system.
PHP Code:
The system is configured as:

However, the installed system has not set the hostname correctly (it is localhost.localdomain), the networking is set to DHCP instead of static/192.168.0.200 and of course no DNS are set! Yes, I did kickstarted the target system more than once, after cobbler sync and cobbler restart etc. It is always the same system. Is seems like the kickstart is not updated!
The kickstart used in the installation is:
PHP Code:
#platform=x86, AMD64, or Intel EM64T
# System authorization information
auth --useshadow --enablemd5
# System bootloader configuration
bootloader --location=mbr
# Partition clearing information
clearpart --all --initlabel
# Use text mode install
text
# Firewall configuration
firewall --enabled
# Run the Setup Agent on first boot
firstboot --disable
# System keyboard
keyboard us
# System language
lang en_US
# Use network installation
