Kickstart using USB Flash Drive

[Ryan Golhar]

You know, there is no more bootnet.img, at least not that I can find on
CD 1 of Enterprise Linux.  I take it I just need to combine bootdisk.img
and drvnet.img to get the necessary NIC card drivers?

I posted some instructions a while back on how to move drivers from the
drivenet.img into the bootnet.img, they predated RH 9, but the process
hasn't changed that much...
