Probably cleaner here to os.waitpid() instead of sleeping, but it looks
fine otherwise.
From the Python docs:
"On Unix: Wait for completion of a child process given by process id
pid, and return a tuple containing its process id and exit status
indication".
We're not waiting for the child process to finish. Just give it some
time to initialize and then continue with normal execution of anaconda.
That's to give time to the Dogtail test script to initialize and be able
to test stuff before anaconda proceeds with execution.
Not really very smart and may not be so usable.
We will probably also want to add a dogtail command to kickstart which
is very easy to do.
