Michael,
I'd recommend in the beginning presenting a 50,000 foot overview, end to end, covering the build/cobbler server, and (presumably) bare metal installation to final login-screen(s). Present the big picture in layman's terms of what all is going to be accomplished with a generalization of the pros and cons. Then drop to the 10,000 foot level, provide some additional technical in-depth details that bridge the gap for those who are brand spanking new to provisioning Linux over the network in bulk and those to whom it is old hat. Then wade into all the material as you know it.
+1 for this approach.
What's the cobbler process to get a tailored installation of the destination bare metal server with the intended OS(s) that is repeatable and consistent without having to manually build on that server first???
That's all about writing the approptiate kickstart config.
