I have seen this same behavior with other brand 10/100 PCMCIA nics. We would need the card to look at the problem, as the test lab does not have one. If you install the system with another PCMCIA card, then reboot, does the problem card work then? If not I suspect this is a kernel-pcmcia issue and not an anaconda issue. Do you know for certain that the server received the DHCP query from the client? I've seen this happen sometimes when the card is plugged into a dual-speed hub or switch, presumably because it's still determining which speed to run at. The machine does get it's ip information from the server. I have the hardware here at Red Hat if you want to have a look. And yes, after install, the card works fine. Please bring the equipment by the developmnt area and we'll take a look. Still waiting on the hardware from mikev to try and reproduce the bug. If you continue to have problems with this please reopen this report. |
