Is this reproducible? What OS is the server running? I believe it is RedHat Linux 9, whatever bundled with RH AS 3. Did uname -a on server: Linux pxe_server 2.4.21-4.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Oct 3 17:52:56 EDT 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux It is reproducible every time. Today I got the same error. Someone mentioned that it may pxe successfully out physical eth0, but then once the install kernel and initrd are loaded, it attempts to use physical eth1 as "eth0" to install. Any validity? Thoughts? It's possible that what the BIOS sees as the first ethernet device isn't the same as what it is in the OS. Are you sure the request is going out over the ethernet device you think it is? What messages are on tty3 and tty4? Closing due to inactivity. Please reopen if you have further information to add to this report. |
