Description of problem: When using rescue mode and you tell it you want to start networking and you select dhcp it will just hang saying its activating the device, it never continues. If you do everything manually it works, and if you go to the shell while its sitting there waiting to activate it seems to get an ipv6 address, but not an ipv4 address, and grepping for dhcp doesn't come up with anything. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL5-beta2 How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot into rescue mode 2.try to activate networking 3.select dhcp for your interface Actual results: anaconda will just sit there saying "activating device" Expected results: It should activate the device. Additional info:
We don't have a RHEL5 beta2 yet. Setting version to rhel5-beta1.
Fix in rawhide now, so it should make its way in to RHEL5 beta2. Thanks.
