I am using RH7.3 and running thin clients from this using D-Link 16 port
100/10 switch. Three of my clients were running perfectly using NE2000
ISA cards thanks to excellent documentation on LTSP site on configuring
DHCPD with option 128/129.
Last week we added another switch from D-Link with 24 ports to
accommodate growing network. Some of the machines were shifted to this
new switch. All of sudden the three machines using ISA cards could not
boot off the server and would get struck doing pivot_root.
Strangely when I move the cables of these machines back to 16 port
switch they work fine. No other machine (mostly using RTL8139 PCI cards)
has this problem from either of the switches. The documentation with the
switch states that the switch is fully compatible for backing down to
10mbps with auto-sensing, just like its 16 port cousin.
Why this happens? I am intrigued.
