We're probably better off actually working on a RH7.1 installer based
on /mit/linux/devel/redhat/7.1/install/... I've already got boot
floppies made, and those boot floppies actually work (although I
haven't tested it on these machines). The problem is that I'm
python-challenged enough that the up-port of the 6.2 installer to the
7.1 anaconda is too much for me. The only main change I know needs to
happen is that the installclass.py needs to be broken down into
sub-parts. I don't know what other changes are required.
