Hmm, I'm not sure I totally follow here.  You are suggesting throwing
in a RFC1918 IP in kickstart (using bootproto=static) or a bogus IP
(like 256.256.2.2)?  Would the latter result in the network dialog
being made available to me?

This is probably the route we'll end up going if there's no way to get
anaconda to present the network config page during installation the way
we want...

Thanks!
