That new initramfs did fix the CTC networking problem. Thank you. And
thanks for the generic.prm. It helped as well.

Unfortunately, there are still challenges with the new anaconda.
The first was that the VNC panel says that it's preparing with the
little spinning circle forever. Logging into the installation, I can
see that it is actually installing and that it has even finished.
However, the GUI panel never changed.
yeah, that's something I also observed, but only when running in
Hercules, not on real iron. So I switched to using kickstarts
(unattended installation), which also saves the cycles otherwise spent
for doing GUI. I'll upload my files as samples.
The second was that it only put one partition on my (ECKD) DASD and
it
was an LVM container, so Hercules sat there spinning with no message but
not booting. When I compared the new partitioning to the working Fedora
14 one, I reinstalled and specified standard partitioning. This
produced three (/boot, swap and /) but this will not come up, either.
It does boot, which is an advance, but stop after it has activated the
network.
can you post the logs somewhere?
