Chicken and egg problem... to fetch the preseed file, your system needs an IP address (which can be obtained by DHCP, or manually specified on the command line). I suppose that in most case, the server are netboot'ed using DHCP, to perform the installation, then the computer is configured to use static IP address (using the preseed file???). Of course, the DHCP could be have MAC<->IP address reservation. BTW, If you go for DHCP you might want to have a look at the "auto-install/enable=true" command line.
