RH 9.0 Kickstart Network Issues

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

We have an issue with a network kickstart RH 9.0 install. The machines are quite elderly, and have a mixture of 3C59X and 3C509 cards in them. The issue we are experiencing is that during the install, the cards create excessive collisions on their segment (thousands) which causes no end of issue. We have tried the install with a Cisco switch, 10Mbit hub and a 10/100 hub with no success. We have also tried a variety of cards (in case of a fault).

If we set the NIC through the select driver option to option=4 full_duplex=1 the NICs and not able to get an IP (the Cisco is set to autonegotiate with spantree-portfast set to on.)

Any help is appreciated.
