Problem Statement: Kudzu remove - with NC3131/7132 or NC3134/NC7132 combination How to view: Install Red Hat 7.1 4-4-01 on ML350 After installation insert either NC3131 and NC7132 or NC3133 and NC7132 Boot server and use Kudzu installation option Configure all IP address to users preference Down server Remove the NC3131/NC7132 or NC3134/NC7132 Boot the server and use the Kudzu option to remove the configuration. Notice after the Kudzu remove that all the network configuration still exists in the Linuxconf utility. Also notice that eth0 and eth3 still exists in the /etc/modules.conf file. You should also notice that after the next reboot the network services for the now nonexistence card still tries to start.
More information Please disregard my statement about the NC3133. Replace with NC3134.

If you don't use the supplied driver mappings, there is no way for the device accounting to take care of this.
