I am seeing this same behavior. I have a server someone in the office put together, starting with a SuperMicro bare-bones system; the NICs are Intel Corporation 82547GI Gigabit Ethernet Controller. I am loading a kickstart via NFS, so it goes something like: - PXE boot does DHCP request (works) - PXE loads kernel with command line to fetch kickstart config via NFS - kernel/initrd load and run, starting anaconda - anaconda does DHCP request for fetching kickstart (works) - kickstart just has "network --hostname blah.hiwaay.net" - anaconda does DHCP request again to use for install - this fails I have PXE/kickstarted another F7 box, but it has e100 NICs, not e1000. Is this an anaconda bug or a kernel bug? This is probably a dupe of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=241783 This is a duplicate of 241783. I grabbed the latest e1000 driver from Intel, built the module for the F7 i586 kernel, and rebuild the initrd.img with the updated e1000 module, and now I can kickstart the system. |
Description of problem: Try to install thinkpad T60W through pxe/kickstart. dhcp does not work and it could not get an IP address Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): F7, both i386 and x86_64 tried FC6 and it worked fine on the same laptop. Hardware is think t60w, ethernet card is: 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82573L Gigabit Ethernet Controller How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. pxe boot and choose kickstart install 2. dhcp and load pxelinux.0 3. can't mount nfs, "alt-f3" shows: "sending dhcp request through device eth0 DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 25.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4 ... ... DHCPv4 eth0 TIMED OUT doing kickstart... setting it up ... Actual results: failed to install Expected results: install can go through Additional info:
