As I replied previously this can easially be done without modifying the src. Depending on the vedrsion of RHL you are talking about there are a couple of options. The first option is to specify ksdevice=eth0 on the kernel boot line. AFAIK this works from 7.x on up to the present. If we are talking about RHL9, RHEL3 or fedora is to use ksdevice=link. Both work. No src modifications necessary. HTH, Tom
