Re: Not really a kickstart question.....

[Chandler Wilkerson <chwilk rice edu>]

I opened a case with Redhat when this happened in 5u1 (5u0 still worked 
for us) Their workaround was to patch anaconda to create an extra 
(undocumented as yet) option in kickstart's network --bootproto line 
called "query". This was released with 5u2.

It's not pretty (and I have a ticket open about this too) because now 
you're asked twice; once by the old style in the stage1 anaconda, and 
then again in the stage2.
