ksdevice=<MAC ADDRESS> works to select the interface for dhcp probing. But it does not rename the interface to eth0. It retrieves an IP over DHCP (it says for eth1) and can download the kickstart file. But after that, connection is lost again. I think this is because eth1 in the kickstart file is configured for a different network. Is this possible? Am Freitag, 15.
