There seems to be a bug in the RedHat/CSuite install when installing over
NFS. After you have formatted your drive(s) and have installed the
components you want you are given the option to reconfigure your network
settings. When you hit "Ok" in that screen the install might crash. This
has been repeated 3 times. When you reboot your system from the hard drive
it gets so far and then complains that /etc/fstab does not exist and puts
you into the shell to repair your disk.

We are currently aware of this problem and are in the process of
determining if this is a RedHat problem or a CSuite problem (due to our
modifications of the RedHat install). Currently, it is recommended that
you not go into the reconfigure network dialogue box at all, instead
select that you wish to keep the current settings. You can always change
your network settings later. It has not been determined if this problem
will occur when installing from a CD.
