Solved: Making anaconda prompt for network information during CD-based Kickstart

[James_Martin at ao.uscourts.gov]

Your first assumption is correct, you don't understand what I'm trying to 
do.  I'm simply trying to be prompted by anaconda during a CD-based 
kickstart for network information such as IP, DNS, etc.. --not the NIC I 
want to install through.

Unless I do not understand what you are trying to do, all you need to
do is pass ksdevice-link on the command line and it will find the
nic that has a link light.

Of course ths only applies to RHL9 and later. You can also do 
ksdevice=eth0

HTH,
