Lovely - we don't actually have blades here, but firewalls with 5 network interfaces, their order changes all the time, but a bit of trying&guessing helps if you change the append line to the following to your pxelinux.cfg/<MAC>: append ip=192.168.248.5:192.168.248.29:192.168.248.1:255.255.255.192:frog.model:eth1:dhcp ... That is, you set a fixed IP address and hostname for interface eth1, where eth1 is subject to change all the time. We don't reinstall our firewalls that often, so the bit of overhead of trying eth0,eth1,eth2,eth3,eth4 is acceptable. HTH, Michael
