Post #313,471 by boxley 9/3/09 9:28:58 AM Reply	yabbut are you doing a minimal pxeboot or cdrom install? If a pxeboot how do you pin the NIC order to the MAC addresses. My kickstart works fine, just leaves the /etc/sysconfig/net*scripts to be manually configured from the console. Pain in the ass, might as well do a cdrom install and yum as you say
Post #313,478 by folkert 9/3/09 1:10:39 PM Reply	Used to do / try PXE boot and minimal. Now I just use CD/DVD and force feed YUM after wards. As long as SSH and eth0 is configured properly by the hands on the console during install... all is well. Since I don't RUN a DHCP, PXE, TFTPD server anymore (I tried, really I tried), the number of installs I do now just aren't worth it. Considering I'm deploying virtual machines now, it just doesn't make sense.

I like it warm and pink, with the whip-marks still on it.
