Denise,
I'm using a full real DVD, NOT an ISO that just resides on a DVD. In fact its exactly
the same DVD that I installed the physical server with, so it's known to be good and
just be sure, I just examined it!
When you say you want the logs, which logs exactly and from where? I assume that from the
guest that had the problematic installation, but I want to be sure that i send the correct
stuff.
Thanks!

Are you testing a full real DVD or just a boot.iso burned to a DVD?
If it's just a boot.iso, that would explain what you're seeing - there
are no packages on it so anaconda will use a
network source in that case. That would explain booting off a DVD and
then seeing lots of network activity.
However if you're using a fullsize however many gig DVD with a Packages/
directory and all that, then there appears to be a bug
here. We'd need to check the log files to find out what's going on. If
that's the case, could you please open a bugzilla against anaconda and
attach the logs?
Thanks,
Denise

So, do you still want bug reports on this?

good lord, he's right. at the moment, during a fresh install, my
network is going bananas with traffic to/from
fedora.mirror.iweb.ca. the install DVD isn't being used. what's up
with *that*?
