HHHMMM:

It sounds like you are depending on a dhcp server to assign the ip
address of the computer that you are wanting to install RH9 on. If this
is the case, you better have access to a dhcp server either running on
your local network, or else through your isp. If it is local, then the
ping thing is not necessary. All you need to do is read the last entry
or 2 in the message file:
tail /var/log/messages
to get the assign ip address.

Just what I know from experience.
