Installing CentOS 5.3 using custom ISO and Drive disk

Hello,

I am having new hardware and IDE driver for that hardware as drive disk image (it8213_centos53.img) . CentOS 5.3 installation is working fine with drive disk image at USB and CentOS 5.3 at DVD.

Our application uses CentOS 5.3 and we build a custom kick-start ISO for installations.
Using that ISO client is going to install on all hardware boxes.
Note while installing :
a) No network connection is avalible.
b) No USB isavalible.
c) No floppy is avalible.
d) Only single CD-ROM is avalible.

So, is it possible to build single custom kick-start CentOS 5.3 ISO which contains dirve disk image and entire installation will be done using that image.
If so please let me know the steps to build it.

Regards,
Sunil Varma

Thanks for the reply,

I was following some process for making custom ISO as specified in the link.
But I was not able to find how to include and use drive disk image in that custom ISO image.
