That's too far down the road as the kernel needs to make the inquieries already and udev is not installed at that point (we are doing a 'FAI' installation and the kernel gets fed something which looks like: kernel kernel/vmlinuz-2.6.23.1-faiinstall append root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot,v3,tcp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 ip=:::::eth0:dhcp FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,createvt,reboot FAI_ACTION=install console=tty0 as you can see there is nfsroot involved which in turn needs dhcp and this needs... a correct interface to work with :( Any other ideas?
