you should have a file anaconda-ks.cfg in /root. you need to open it
up in a text editor and check it out, some editing may be required (IS
required if you wanted to do a fresh install from it, but you are just
reverting, so may not be). this file needs to be given to the
installer as an argument at boot, a tftp config line might look like

label rh73
  kernel redhat/rh73/vmlinuz ramdisk_size=16384 load_ramdisk=1
  initrd=redhat/rh73/initrd.img network
    append initrd=redhat/rh73/initrd.img ks=192.168.23.6/rh73/ks.cfg

where ks.cfg is available by http.
the docs in the anacoda package are invaluable in setting this kind of
thing up.

It looks like I can just copy the anaconda-ks.cfg file to the EFI partition (this is an Itanium), and then refer to it when I boot from the installation CD, something like


  elilo linux ks=hd:sda1:/ks.cfg

Worth a try?

Clearly, I *need* to set up SI to hold base images for my testbed machines.
