Funny, I just finished fighting with this, the installer and kernel
work fine, but for some reason, you have to disable PXE on the
ethernet devices to get it to work. Does anyone know why this is?

You mean the NIC isn't detected or won't work in the installer at
all if PXE
is enabled on that interface?
The NIC is not detected at all by the installer, and kudzu didn't
detect it at startup, unless PXE was disabled. As soon as PXE was
disabled in the BIOS, kudzu detected and installed the driver.
I'll play around with this Monday to see if I can reproduce it
reliably, and get a more accurate picture of what's going on.
I have not run across that on our 2950's. The NIC's do show up
reversed in
the OS -- eg eth0 is actually port 2 and eth1 is actually port 1
(in BIOS and
labeled on the back of the server).

Weird, I haven't noticed that.

I’ve got some new Dell 2950’s that have the BroadCom chip set for
the NIC’s.
How do I alter the software on the install server to install this
driver ?
thanks
