Doesn't help at all with the option of installing from CD. P needs a boot floppy that contains his network driver and can install from CD. He needs to dig into Anaconda to find how to create boot floppies - fortunately he has 2.88 Mbytes to play with. He can have one or more ks files on the boot floppy (which, I might point out, is used for booting the CD and is specified with "-b" on the mkisofs command.
