Yes, oVirt Node 4 can be auto-installed using PXE.

To achieve this you can roughly follow the CentOS guidelines for setting up auto installation.

When it comes to the kickstart, you just need to ensure to include the following directives:

…
…
liveimg --url=http://url/to/squashfs
autopart --type=thinp
%post --erroronfail
imgbase layout --init
%end

I'd suggest to move the discussion to a mailinglist i.e. users.
