ISSUE TRACKER 26388 OPENED AS SEV 1. Note that this is a sev 2 at most as reflected in the Bugzilla What are the contents of /etc/sysconfig/hwconf immediately after the first reboot? It looks like kudzu is picking up a phantom interface. Closing due to inactivity. Please reopen if you have any further information to add to this bug report |
Description of problem: For some odd reason, after an install on an rx5670 with 17 network interfaces (eth0-eth16), /etc/modules.conf contains this: alias eth0 tg3 alias eth1 tg3 alias eth2 tg3 alias eth3 eepro100 alias eth4 eepro100 alias eth5 tulip alias eth6 tulip alias eth7 tulip alias eth8 tulip alias eth9 tulip alias eth10 tulip alias eth11 tulip alias eth12 tulip alias eth13 tulip alias eth14 tulip alias eth15 tulip alias eth16 tulip alias scsi_hostadapter sym53c8xx_2 alias eth17 e100 Note the 'eth17' at the end. A) This interface does not exist. (most important) B) it's using e100, which is odd, since the eepro100 driver loaded for eth3 and eth4 will claim any cards which would otherwise be configured for e100. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Q2 Errata How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RHAS2.1 Q2 errata on a system with 16 interfaces (I used 3x 4-port tulip cards, 2xeepro100 cards, 2xGB Ethernet cards, and the core networking card). 2. look at /etc/modules.conf 3. Actual results: eth17 has an alias in /etc/modules.conf Expected results: eth17 shouldn't be aliased anywhere, since it does not exist. Additional info:
