I hear that the same thing happens with cxgb3i partial offload iscsi card (with ibft). This is caused by bug #690589. (In reply to comment #4) > This is caused by bug #690589. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690589#c8 *** Bug 696198 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Radek has confirmed that patch 02398bf054de532bdbe64ce88239a30b208bcd62 is causing this bug (as well as bug #696198). Reverting the patch resolves the issue. The patch was originally introduced for bug #690589, but was really more of a completeness thing and not really solving a problem. Requesting pm_ack and blocker approval so we can revert this patch in anaconda. I will mark 690589 as devel_ack- since we will be removing the patch for it. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. This should be fixed with revert of bug #690589 in anaconda-13.21.113-1. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on therefore solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2011-0530.html |
Created attachment 491722 [details] syslog messages Description of problem: Installer is unable to configure network during startup (in stage1) if iBFT is used. Syslog contains: 12:25:43,341 NOTICE NetworkManager: ifcfg-rh: updating /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 12:25:43,345 WARNING NetworkManager: ifcfg-rh: error: Missing device MAC address (no HWADDR tag present). 12:25:43,345 NOTICE NetworkManager: ifcfg-rh: removed /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. Issue occurs only in case of iBFT, "standard" network setup passes without issue. As error message says ifcfg-eth0 is missing HWADDR=. It is missing this value also in case of "standard" network setup, probably BOOTPROTO=ibft has to be counted here. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL6.1-20110406.0 anaconda 13.21.111 Reproducer: Use iBFT hw
