I ran into similar problems using a E1000 nic card. There is actually an open bug on bugzilla about this...it has something to do with not enough time passing for the network to settle. Here is my scenario: 1. Machines obtain DHCP IP address (works fine) 2. Machines attempt an NFS mount for the RH CDs (fails) After I get prompted, I press Enter to accept the defaults from the kickstart file and it works the second time.

I've mounted the Shrike boot disk onto a working machine, opened up initrd.img in the ISOLINUX dir, and within that opened up the modules.cgz and removed the bad e1000.o and added my working e1000.o and then rebuilt the modules.cgz, initrd.img and made sure to update pcitable and module-info with the hardware code found by typing lspci -n on a already installed working machine. I create a new ISO and burn, and it still DOES NOT WORK. I know the CD works because if I put it in a computer with an E100 nic, it works just fine and dandy. Can anyone suggest what I may be doing incorrectly?
