Description Christopher Abbey 2000-05-17 04:42:38 UTC 
The post install configuration fails if you configure two interfaces as
such:

eth0: dhcp, active at boot

eth1: active at boot, static address, gateway, netmask, etc.

It APPEARS as though the dhcp requests are being sent out through
the statically configured card instead of the dynamic card. This is
based on watching for activity on the two lans as the pic is configuring
the network interfaces... there is traffic on the eth1 lan (this was
the only machine powered up at the time) but there was not activity on
the eth0 lan (cable modem). This was on the updated boot disks in the
errata.

Have you tried the anaconda errata which addresses this issue?
Comment 2 Erik Troan 2000-08-05 13:54:32 UTC 
This is a pump bug that pump 0.8, ftp://people.redhat.com/ewt should address.
Plesae let
me know if it helps.
