Ian,
I am looking at the docs and have not seen how to get a USB network adapter to be recognized at installation time. Do you know how to do this? I have a trendnet et100 device (usb network adapter) that linux supports. I wish to just disable the onboard network, use the usb NIC to do my install, and yum udpates, then re-enable the onboard NIC.
My issue is I cannot get the usb NIC to be recognized at installation time? Is that possible?
