I did find a mention of 'linksleep' in a letter from over a year ago from Philip Rowlands, describing the patch that introduced it. The only mention of 'eth0_ethtool' I can find is in RHEL2.1 documentation. Are either of these options and their possible values documented for RHEL3? I assume these are here to address the longstanding problems some users have experienced when kickstarting with the e1000 driver through gigabit switches. Are you (or others?) using these options successfully for other types of installs (e.g., ftp install, static addressing)? I'd prefer not to specify ksdevice in the syslinux config, and to not have multiple labels, for situations where another interface is used for the install. Is it possible to include more than one 'ethX_ethtool' entry, or to set the settings for all e1000 interfaces? thanks for any pointers, -Ed
