I realise this is a matter of some debate/religion, so I won't argue it any further. >Now this kickstart setup works for a x330 with built >in 10/100 Intel cards. The e1000 module takes options to force these settings. On my 2.4.20 RH73 box, they're: parm: Speed int array (min = 1, max = 32), description "Speed setting" parm: Duplex int array (min = 1, max = 32), description "Duplex setting" parm: AutoNeg int array (min = 1, max = 32), description "Advertised auto-negotiation setting" "modinfo e1000" will tell if it differs for RHAS2.1. This isn't kickstart-specific, but you need to get the options into /etc/modules.conf. Read http://www.ibiblio.org/mdw/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO.html for more info. Odd that you can get through the PXE with no probs. Hope this helps, Phil
