If I KS install FC3 and redirect out the serial port KS pauses and prompts for "Keyboard Type", after I select "us" the install continues without issue. If I do not pass console=ttyS1,9600 to the kernel then I do not have this problem. I think I have seen this before, but I cannot recall what the problem or solution was. Looking for ideas. It's kinda hard to build a cluster with FC3 with this pause. BTW, I tested both x86_64 and x86 versions and I do have "keyboard us" in my .ks file. Thanks.
