try using noipv6 nicdelay=50 linksleep=50 eth0_ethtool="autoneg=on speed=1000 duplex=full" Of course, adjust the ethtool line as appropriate for interface, speed, etc. Let us know if this works for you. -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of David Hageman Sent: Tuesday, July 31, 2007 12:35 PM To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Fedora 7 Kickstart / Stage2 Issue I have been using kickstart to setup our computer labs for the last several releases of Fedora. I thought while I had some time, that I would implement a cobbler setup and roll out Fedora 7. I am running into an issue with kickstarting Fedora 7. I use the boot.iso to create a bootable CD which from the command line type in my kickstart command: ks=http://<pathtoks.cfg> Anaconda starts up, grabs an IP address, grabs the kickstart file and at this point attempts to re-initialize the interface using DHCP. The system queries via DHCP several times before it gives up and attempts to retrieve stage2 which fails ... I am at a loss because I watch the DHCP server logs and it sees all the queries and responds to each one. It is like anaconda is ignoring the responses. I have looked at the mailing list for previous problems and solutions and have even set portfast on the port in question, but it failed to help me. I have also set various other options such as noipv6 ksdevice=link loglevel=debug without any success. Anyone have any ideas on this? -- ========================================================= David Hageman Linux/Network Administrator Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science University of Kansas 3042 Eaton Hall (785) 864.3923 dhageman@xxxxxxxxxxx ========================================================= _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
