Summary	0000085: Can't perform network installation due to ICMP6 socket not created
Description	This is on what the installation hangs Fresh network installations Loops forever at : IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth2: link becomes ready Additionally, adding ipv6.disable=1 also hangs forever at the same place, with this different error: "dracut-initqueue[1245]: libndp: ndp_sock_open: Failed to create ICMP6 socket" dracut should NOT be trying to use IPv6 when IPv6 is disabled... There is no IPV6 in my network and I'm trying to perform the installation open ipv4. Also, I'm using a KS file if it helps.
