Any thoughts? People can't have it both ways. Anaconda will write ONBOOT=no if you are not installing over the network, and thus your interface will not be "autoconnect". If you do install over a network, then anaconda will write ONBOOT=yes, and you will get autoconnect. That's the root cause of your problem. Not sure how to fix it, because there are legitimate reasons for not making all interfaces autoconnect when you don't do a network install. Part of that is security; don't bring a network up until you really need it, since connecting to a network makes a machine less secure. Not sure how to fix this, it's more of a policy decision at install-time than anything technical.
