Just what I got when trying to spec the info file via nfs. AY needs to know
the netdevice to fetch the info file, so you might add "netdevice=eth0 info=..."
to your boot prompt.

However, after I chose the netdevice, my AY continued to start the ssh
and VNC server and I could connect to VNC and see what's going on...



OK .. I got rid of it asking for the network device by using ..

info=http://192.168.189/profiles/booger/info netdevice=eth0


but it still stops for an interactive installation ... do I have
to put a y2confirm=no to get it going ...
