Re: Changing items in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/{MACADDRESS}

Sorry for responding to my own question, but I figured it out.

Setting --kopts="ksdevice=eth2" does work, but ONLY if you also specify the MAC address when you add the system.

We've got a bunch of Sun X4200 M2 systems, and on these systems, the device physically labeled "NET0" actually comes up as eth2, when booted from any RH-like operating system.

My problem is I can't determine a way of changing this value in the / tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/MA:CA:DD:RE:SS file that gets generated by cobbler. I wind up with an entry like ...

append ksdevice=eth0 lang= console=ttyS0,9600n8 text syslog=xxxxx.xxxx.xxx:25150 kssendmac initrd=/images/rhel5Server- x86_64/initrd.img ks=http://xxxxx.xxxx.xxx/cblr/kickstarts_sys/xxxxx.xxx.xxx/ks.cfg

I don't want to change the "default" file in there, because for most of my systems, eth0 is the right device. I tried setting -- kopts="ksdevice=eth2" but that didn't make a difference in the pxelinux.cfg/... file.

Am I missing something obvious?  Thanks,
