Description Radek Vykydal 2017-02-01 13:16:32 UTC
RHEL 7.3 GA.

My reproducer (kickstart test [1]):

Two of three devices activated in initrd by
ip=ens3:dhcp ip=ens4:dhcp
Devices (re)configured by kickstart fetched from network

%include /tmp/ksinclude

%pre
echo "network --device=ens4 --noipv4 --no-activate --onboot=yes" >> /tmp/ksinclude
echo "network --device=ens5 --noipv4 --activate --onboot=no" >> /tmp/ksinclude
%end

The traceback:
