Description Jack Reed 2011-10-19 23:18:08 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #710358 +++

Description of problem:
since https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710297 is not a software bug (according to Brian), it would be nice if you could update the docs to reflect the changes.
Comment 1 Jack Reed 2011-10-20 01:02:17 UTC 
Does not apply to RHEL6 - closing.
Comment 2 Jure Pečar 2013-06-28 15:03:38 UTC 
It does apply to RHEL6 very much - since RHEL6 docs still describe interactive kickstart option, which is in reallity silently ignored in kickstarts. Please fix either anaconda or documentation.
Comment 3 Jure Pečar 2013-07-02 13:54:17 UTC 
Additional findings - what I said is only true for text mode installs. Graphical mode is interactive as requested in ks file.

Still, documentation should warn that interactive mode only works in graphical mode.

Please reopen this bug and get this fixed.
