I'm not sure if Anaconda is using the ABRT tool.  ABRT has its own
algorithm to look for a matching bug.  If no match is found, then ABRT
will create a new bug.

I just tested ABRT in Fedora 13.  It seems to me that you would have to
display the text in the same session that Anaconda runs in.  I don't
know how to do that.

It should be if you are connected to a network with DHCP service.  You
can test it by going to the virtual console (with C-A-F2) and using
commands like ping and ifconfig.  You can go back to Anaconda with
something like C-A-F6.
