No sir, not quite. The bail point is the same but the error is different.
<pastes from the beginning>
Ethernet Card:
eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95703A30) rev 1002 PHY(5703)]
(PCIX:133MHz:64-bit) 10/100/1000BaseT
Problem: Installing from PXE, fails to aquire DHCP address as Kickstart
begins.
Summary:
1. PXE-Booting aquires DHCP w/ MAC matching
2. Kernel is passed over and Boots
3. Kickstart engages and knows to boot over HTTP, its first job is to
aquire its address through DHCP. The first broadcast is never handled
and times out, thus causing a stop point for the user asking methodology
for aquiring an address.
4. When you select OK to try DHCP again, it aquires, and the
installation continues as it should.
I've seen this problem reported before, but never really seen an
applicable solution. In the DHCP logs I see a broadcast coming over the
lines but I don't know why its not getting a response at this time and
why it gets it on the second trial. The Console logs:
Sending DHCP request through device eth0
Waiting for link
5 seconds . . .
Pump told us: no DHCP reply recieved.
