Did you include iscsi on the command install line?

Did iscsi text install work or not?

initrd work is still in progress as well as some open-iscsi related
changes - you won't be able to use root on iSCSI yet, you'll just get the
root fs image installed.

Note that the IP address requested is the address for the send target
command, that is usually the same as the iSCSI target address anyway.

I have not verified install from CD or non-network installs (I did not
test selection and start up of networking in those cases for iscsi
install).

There are still some bugs. From the iscsi screen, I have to usually do
a next/prev/next to get the storage to show up - maybe a race with iscsid
and then immediately running iscsiadm, plus there is an issue with scan
returning early in some cases (Mike C. posted some patches to fix the
scan).

I have not looked at or specifically tested anything with FC5-test3, I've
been using FC devel on ppc (IBM JS20).
