Yep... we do it all the time. I'll forward you the message I got sent
about it yesterday when I intended to reply to the earlier topic.

Basically:
enable PXE
have DHCP server redirect to TFTP server
give box the appropriate kickstart image

It works pretty well and requires little or no interaction from me..
which is always a good thing
