From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2 i686) This is similar to bug 20167 that was aparently closed due to inactivity. There was no category for installer for the public betas. I'm setting up KickStart over NFS with boot floppies. DHCP is used to get network information. The clients are SGI 1200 rackmount PCs with three ethernet interfaces (eepro100 cards). I am always getting asked which ethernet device to use during installation. The KickStart docs say that the 'network' line can have '--device eth0', but that it only works for floppy based installs and that DHCP will configure everything (I tried it anyway). That being the case, DHCP should be used on all interfaces instead of asking which one I shoudl use. The prevents a fully hands-free install from happening. My KickStart file: lang en_US network --device eth0 --bootproto dhcp nfs --server 192.168.1.1 firewall --disabled keyboard us zerombr yes clearpart --all part / --size 2048 part swap --size 1024 part /var --size 512 part /tmp --size 1024 --grow install mouse generic3ps/2 timezone --utc US/Eastern skipx rootpw --iscrypted $1$HAwE4Ja5$/zkBxF4yQJfJ6YyNEGPjy1 auth --useshadow --enablemd5 lilo --location mbr reboot%packages @ Base @ Networked Workstation @ Network Server @ Development @ Utilities tcpdump wu-ftpd ntp mtools zip libungif kaffe %post --nochroot /mnt/source/local/install.sh Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use above kickstart file with boot floppy. 2. 3. Actual Results: You will be asked one question... which ethernet dev to use. Expected Results: Should be asked no questions. DHCP should probe each interface automatically. This happens with Fisher, Wolverine, and Rawhide. I've never tried any other version of KickStart.
Matt please look at.
fixed in CVS.
