You guys must have added the linksleep functionality back. In the version of anaconda I am using (anaconda-13.21.82-1.el6.centos.1.x86_64.rpm ) the variable that linksleep sets (num_link_checks) is not used anywhere throughout the source code. In the latest anaconda (from the git repo) num_link_checks is used in net.c. I think it was fixed for rhbz#713991. I'll try to use anaconda from centos 6.2 and see if I have an issue when I set the linksleep option to a higher value. Dusty ----- Original Message ----- From: Brian C.

Can we get the same functionality by using some other parameters? linksleep is still there. It defaults to 5 tries. nicdelay no longer does anything.
