  I should add that I set the static IP address from %post using:
# Configure eth0
file="/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0"
sed --in-place "s/^\(BOOTPROTO=.*\)$/#\1/" $file
sed --in-place "s/^\(DHCPCLASS=.*\)$/#\1/" $file
cat <<EOF >>$file

BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
NETMASK=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
EOF

I do it this way, because I really don't care what the IP address is during 
install.  I want the IP address to be set during the next boot.
