Description Trond H. Amundsen 2012-04-19 09:20:02 UTC 
Description of problem:
When the option "text" is specified in the kickstart file, anaconda doesn't honor it and starts graphical installation. Specifying "text" on the command line works, however.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
17.20 (F17-Beta)

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make a kickstart file with the option "text" in it
2. Do a kickstart installation and watch it enter graphical install
  
Actual results:
Graphical install

Expected results:
Text mode install
Comment 1 Will Woods 2012-04-20 22:26:54 UTC 
Should be fixed in next anaconda build (17.22).

The 'text' boot option should work  in the meantime.

Should be fixed in anaconda-17.22 or later.

Can you confirm with one of the recent test images?
