[Bug 960507] Virtual machine (qemu-KVM) net installer boots from Red Hat Virtio NIC (nonexistent)

So, in my POV (as I understand it) the issue blames linuxrc about picking / configuring wrong net device:

* Bug: the network device is set to Red Hat Virtio Network Device (null). * Workaround: Change to eth0. * You're back to the Start Installation menu. Wait 10-15 seconds; it should ask: automatic configuration by DHCP? Answer what's appropriate for your net (usually Yes).
