Hello,
I am a die-hard Linux lover and using Red-hat Linux7.2 found following low 
seviarity bugs.

Hello, 
we find the following bugs in Red-hat linux 7.2.
Bug1:
Title: Partion details are not preserved by the installer when "Back" button is 
pressed while installing Red-hat Linux7.2.

Steps to reproduce:

1.Install Red-hat Linux7.2.
(The hard disk which we used doesn't have any previous partitions in it.)
2.While the installer prompts for Partition method to use, choose Partition 
with Disk-Druid.
3.Then divide the disk as 4 partitions /home,/,/usr/var then swap.
4.Click "Next" button , then click "Back" button.
5.We find now that the previously defined partitions are reset and we need to 
re-define the partitions.

It would be good if the installer preserves the defined partions while doing 
the above steps.

Bug2:
Installer doesn't provide correct "Network IP" and "Broadcast IP" while 
installation.

Steps to reproduce:

1.Install Red-hat Linux7.3.
2.When it prompts for Network details enter them as follows.
IP: 192.168.2.104
Press "TAB" key.
3.Now we get "Netmask","Network IP", "Broadcast IP" 
as "255.255.255.0","192.168.2.0","192.168.2.255" respectively.
4.Now change the IP "192.168.2.104" as "12.168.2.104" press the "TAB" key.
We find the "Netmask","Network" and "Broadcast" remains 
as "255.255.255.0","192.168.2.0","192.168.2.255" respectively.

It would be good if they gets change with respect to IP address entered above 
as follows:
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Network: 192.168.2.0
Broadcast: 192.168.2.255

Thanks,
KArthiKeyan
