What are you trying to achieve? If your trying to get an IP
before the installation starts, you should use DHCP, or
statically assign it using kickstart.

Last I checked, you couldn't get to the shell on ctrl-alt-f2 during
the installation before the network configuration took place. The
shell only becomes available after the anaconda installer fires up
(which is after it loads the network drivers, network config, and
local disk drivers).
