I started writing up little commands to get system info for when new hardware that comes in.
]# for i in $(cat /proc/net/dev | grep ':' | cut -d ':' -f 1); do echo "Interface : $i" " $(ethtool $i | grep Link)"; done
Interface : lo Link detected: yes
Interface : em1 Link detected: yes
Interface : em2 Link detected: no
Interface : em3 Link detected: no
Interface : em4 Link detected: no
Interface : p3p1 Link detected: no
Interface : p3p2 Link detected: no
Interface : p3p3 Link detected: no
Interface : p3p4 Link detected: no
01 ~]# for i in $(cat /proc/net/dev | grep ':' | cut -d ':' -f 1); do echo -e NIC : $i $(cat /sys/class/net/"$i"/address); done
NIC : lo 00:00:00:00:00:00

~]# service ipmi start

What I ended up doing was putting this in the end my post section at the bottom of my kickstarts so I can capture all this info.
%post --interpreter=/bin/bash

# Turn on bash debugging for more meaningful output in logfile
