Hi Tom, I've also liked the idea of IB support for Anaconda, there's some
outstanding issues though one big one is ISC DHCP does not support IB networking
right now. OFED has a patch but they have not given it to them and without this
you could not use PXE kickstart installation with Fedora.

We need the ib udev rules added to the initramfs, to Anaconda it shouldn't
really matter as long as Anaconda determines it is a network device like any
ethernet but there might be some code to add to create the ifcfg entries for
ib#.

Shawn.
