-----Original Message----- From: Harry Hoffman [mailto:hhoffman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Do you have the latest version of the ISOs? Harry, I have the Box-Set Isos. Several Copies, in fact. No idea what versions, besides "latest to press". I don't know about your box, but this xServer has dual Broadcom NetXtreme 5770 Gigabit Ethernet NICs onboard. Broadcom ships version 7.6.6 of their driver on a CD that comes with the xServer. I was told when we got these servers in Q4 last year, that they were bleeding edge, and I had to install the driver from CD. I did, and have had no problems with manual install. The problem is when doing the network install... The Boot Agent finds it's initrd via DHCPD, and boots up to the Curses-Based installer. the installer flips through (and finds) some modules, and installs them, before stopping abruptly with a Kickstart Error: "Error Opening kickstart file (null): Bad address" Alt-F3 shows that the modprobe never found a NIC. I can then <enter> thru the default prompts until asked to specify the location of the installation Media. If I choose any network-based source, I get a 'no driver found' error, where I am prompted to select a driver, use a driver disk, or go back from whence I came. Neither of the provided Broadcom drivers actually works, and if I try to use the Broadcom CD as a "Driver Disk", I learn that sadly, it is not a redhat "driver disk". Randomly trying other drivers doesn't bear any fruit either. (Not that it should, mind you.) Alt-F3 shows that the modules are stored in /modules/modules.cgz but I am not certain where to look for that. Both # find / -iname modules.cgz and # updatedb;slocate modules.cgz come up empty-handed on the host system. Where does the net-boot client get it's initial filesystem from? If I can find that, (And open it -- what's a .cgz?) then I can add the .o file I need, and probably botch together a line-item for it in the manual side too.
