      Workaround:

      Description: After creating a kickstart file during this exercise, it's natural to want to demonstrate a kickstart-based install.

      The instructor guide (steps 6.1 and 6.2, p. 262) for this version of the course states that, for VT, interrupting the boot sequence of serverX with Ctrl-B should allow access to the gPXE prompt. However, this does NOT appear to work with the current version ServerX (or DesktopX) — after trying several times with different approaches, I was unable to get access to the gPXE prompt from the ServerX / DesktopX images.
