Description Ray Van Dolson 2008-04-22 16:14:29 UTC
Description of problem:
The stage 2 installer (GUI or text) does not prompt for network information when
kickstarting.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Whatever comes with RHEL 5.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write kickstart configuration.
2. Boot to installer, obtain IP via DHCP in stage1, continue to GUI installer.
3. No network configuration screen is presented.
  
Actual results:
No network configuration screen is presented.

Expected results:
Network screen should be presented regardless as was behavior in RHEL4 anaconda.

Additional info:
I will attach a screenshot of the network configuration screen I would like to
see.  Please do not confuse this for #401531.  I am not trying to configure IP
information *before* the GUI installer begins, but during.

Actually, apparently this is being addressed in #401531.  Please close this out.
