> All on one line, of course.

> ethernet port and builtin wireless ethernet, you will be prompted
> inaccessibly on screen for the ethernet device the Fedora installer
> should use if you don't just tell the installer up front which one to
> use with the ksdevice designation. So, be sure to include it. If in

> TIP: If you are on Linux, use alarm ping, e.g.:
>
> ping -a 192.168.33.123
>
> When your ping starts singing, it's time to telnet to the installation.

> telnet 192.168.33.123
>
> Be aware that it takes some time for the telnet server to get loaded and
> become available. The installation must first load its various drivers
> and this will take some time--perhaps a few minutes.
