Description of problem:
Red Hat installer did not detect my network hardware, and I was not given the
opportunity to configure my network.  firstboot ran and asked to register with
RHN, which is impossible without a configured network.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Install Red Hat Linux 8.0 without network hardware.
2.  Boot Red Hat Linux 8.0 and let "firstboot" run.
3.  Try to register with RHN.
	

Actual Results:  Unable to register with RHN because the network was not configured.

Expected Results:  RHN registration should not be displayed unless network is
configured.
