Should work fine.

And Tapas, PLEASE don't respond to someone else's message and change the
subject line if you want to start a new thread.  To start a new thread,
send a completely NEW message to redhat-install-list at redhat.com with an
appropriate subject line.  What you did is called "thread hijacking"
and it's not appreciated as it screws up news readers that display
messages in thread order.
