1) On one system I installed via NFS because there was no CDrom. The install script asks for the IP address of my DNS, I don't know why because it doesn't ask for any names, only IP address, but I supply it , however, it doesn't ask for the IP address of the system which has the CD, re-running the script THEN asks me for the IP of the system with CD and everything is cool. This is not a big deal but just in case you didn't know.

I cannot reproduce this problem. Most of our installs are NFS installs, so we should be aware if there really is a bug somewhere...

Could the way I exported my CDrom have something to do with it?

Export list for lac: /cdrom 199.243.226.173

And the 199.243.226.173 does not have a DNS record associated with it.

No, linuxrc should always ask for the IP address of the NFS server you want to install from... Maybe you unintentionally hit the ESC key?
