Re: No network selection during Kickstarted FC3RC3 build

This has been an issue for awhile... I opened a bug on this awhile ago 
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=119331), because 
it's seems like it should prompt someone for network information during a 
CD install, especially since it prompts you for so many other things if 
you leave them blank. 

The bug was "be considered for a future release".

Jeremy, did this make it into FC3's anaconda?
