[cobbler] Can't find /tmp/pre_install_network_config error on kickstart in F18

I've been trying to troubleshoot this on F18/Cobbler 2.2.3 for two days now
and could use whatever input anyone might have.

I'm using a modified version of the sample.ks kickstart which works great
on F17 and, by copying it and changing the repo stanzas is otherwise
unchagned for F18. I get the above error when booting.

Switch to Ctrl-Alt-F2 and in that console I can confirm that the file isn't
there. I try the commands in the %pre section that are supposed to create
it and discover that "ifconfig" isn't in my path. It doesn't seem to exist
anywhere in the execution environment my system is sitting in at that point
(or in that console, anyway).

I know the MAC is correct -- is this really a problem in that F18 just
doesn't have ifconfig available, or is something else amiss?

Thanks!
