Er, what? It reads to me like what you want to do is not 'activate the
ethernet' (that still won't cause it to magically find a local
repository if you don't tell it where to look), but to configure a local
repository. You can do that on the cmdline with repo=(url) -
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda_Boot_Options - or in a kickstart
with the 'url=' (or 'nfs=', for NFS) option -
