I've changed the default templates and settings to use ksdevice=bootif and ipappend 2 in the devel branch.
This should simplify some multiple network setups. Heads up :) If you do not like this option you can still use your old settings file or edit /etc/cobbler/settings to use whatever you like, as well as editing the templates used to generate the PXE configuration in /etc/cobbler/pxe*.template For those that are wondering what this is about, see the Fedora documentation: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f9/en_US/sn-Installer.html 5.3.3. Multiple NICs and PXE Installation Some servers with multiple network interfaces may not assign |eth0| to the first network interface as BIOS knows it, which can cause the installer to try using a different network interface than was used by PXE. To change this behavior, use the following in |pxelinux.cfg/*| config files: IPAPPEND 2 APPEND ksdevice=bootif The configuration options above cause the installer to use the same network interface as BIOS and PXE use. You can also use the following option: ksdevice=link This option causes the installer to use the first network device it finds that is linked to a network switch. --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
