OK.  Something is definitely missing here.  Notice how (http://www.redhat.com/magazine/024oct06/features/kickstart/) GRUB contains options for setting the IP address, netmask, and gateway for the system you intend to boot.  These arguments are /*not*/ set in /your/ grub configuration.  As to why they are not, either you didn't specify them during your cobbler system provisioning OR there is some kind of a bug in koan's 'reprovision' logic.  Likely the former.  Please double check that you specified

cobbler .... --ip=X --subnet=Y --gateway=Z ...

in your provision command.


# cobbler system report --name=xxxxxx

that seems fine to me?

and the koan version on the client

# rpm -qa | grep koan
koan-1.0.0-1.el4

thanks for any further info
OK... good.  If you could try to do so, please reprovision your system with the following amendment:
  • cobbler ... --kopts='ip=10.xxx.xxx.19 netmask=255.255.254.0 gateway=10.xxx.xxx.253 dns=10.xxx.xxx.117' ...
Resync and see if the new grub file installed after koaning looks the part.

-A.
