This is your workaround:

repo=http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/fedora/development/17/i386/os gateway=192.168.1.1
dns=192.168.1.1 graphical ip=192.168.0.1 netmask=255.255.255.0 hostname=gx28b noselinux
noipv6
initrd (hd0,2)/fedora/initrd.img
?
It is a legacy grub stanza with three lines, including the title?
The (hd0,13) in the title is documentation only?
Except for the repo option, the network options refer
to the system on which F17 is to be installed?
The kernel and initrd images come from
http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/fedora/development/17/i386/os/isolinux ?
hostname=gx28b means that if your comoputer says b82xg,
it will return to the fifth dimension?
Mine has an ip address, but no externally visable name.
Does that mean I can't use this?
11.1.5. Specifying the Network Settings
Normally, anaconda prompts you to configure a network interface if one is needed during
installation. However, you can provide network settings with options at the boot: prompt
as follows:
ip
the IP address for system
netmask
the netmask for the system
gateway
the IP address of the network gateway
dns
the IP address of the network DNS server
ksdevice
the network device to use with these settings
