Functionality is already present :-) Add '--ethtool="speed 100 duplex full"' to the network line of your ks.cfg or add 'ethtool="speed 100 duplex full"' to your command line on boot and it will get set. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: not all network cards will choose the correct speed/duplex combination when using dhcp for initial boot when ks.cfg later assigns a fixed address. this might slow down the installation in an environment where 100baseTx-FD is possible but only 10baseTx-HD is used. it would be nice if mii-tool could be included into the ramdisk that gets loaded via the network, since then one could adjust the network speed in the %pre section and thus reduce installation time. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot via vanilla dhcp into kickstart installation 2. 3. Additional info:
