The networking information is prompted with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 kickstart, even when it's provided in the boot parameter

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

Kickstarting a RHEL 6.3 machine, passing network settings as boot parameters as :
ip= netmask= gateway= dns=
and bootproto=static defined in the kickstart profile but anaconda is still prompting for LAN adapter configuration parameters, despite the same information being previously entered. This method works fine with all RHEL5 but not on RHEL 6.3. How do we fix it?
