Description davidyangyi 2012-01-18 23:02:01 UTC 
Description of problem:
I set up a rhel6.1 pxe+nfs install server. When booting from pxelinux.0 eth0 get ip from dhcp server(reading /var/lib/tftpboot/rhel6.1-install/pxelinux.cfg/default), and then again eth0 get another ip from ks_rhel6.1.cfg
It causes the installation progress cannot continue, cannot get installation files from nfs server.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.1 (Santiago)

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
/var/lib/tftpboot/rhel6.1-install/pxelinux.cfg/default

  menu label ^Install or upgrade RHEL6.1 ks
  kernel rhel6.1/vmlinuz
  append ks=nfs:192.168.25.10:/systemiso/ks_rhel6.1.cfg ksdevice=eth0 initrd=rhel6.1/initrd.img

ks_rhel6.1.cfg
nfs --server=192.168.25.10 --dir=/media/
network --onboot yes --device eth0 --bootproto static --ip 10.10.126.31 --netmask 255.255.255.0 --gateway 10.10.126.1 --nameserver 202.107.117.11 --hostname rhel6 --noipv6
