How do you get command-line on the compaq servers? I don't recall see option for that. I usually press F12 for PXE boot. We are having problems with PXE not working through Extreme Network Black Diamonds. The PXE will timeout while port is configured for spanning tree and networking can't/won't turn that off. Being able to configure network some other way may be perfect workaround.

Instead of setting up PXE or DHCP, or creating a new diskette image with a ks.cfg for each server, is there a way to set the ip address, netmask and gateway from the command line when syslinux comes up? > > > > I am using: > > > > linux text ks=nfs:192.168.1.1:/path/to/ks.cfg > > > > Can you do something like this: > > > > linux text ks=nfs:192.168.1.1:/path/to/ks.cfg,eth0=192.168.1.2,netmask=255.255.255.0,gateway=192.168.1.254 > > > > Thanks! > > -- > > Thomas Cameron, RHCE, CNE, MCSE, MCT > > Consultant > > Linux Design and Engineering > > Bank of America > > (972) 997-9641 > > > > The opinions expressed in this message are mine alone and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of my employer, Bank of America. > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Kickstart-list mailing list > > Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx > > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list > > > _______________________________________________ > Kickstart-list mailing list > Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list >
