[Aurora-sparc-user] Net install problem with Corona?

Hello,

Every install of Fedora Core 6 that I did on x86 failed with a similar
problem. I think the problem is / was shared by all distros with the FC6
Anaconda code base. 

I worked around the problem by choosing DHCP for the interfaces.

Thanks,
Rob
