Hi,
Do you know which driver it is?
Also, have to you tested yet with the non pxe install images?

It's the tg3 driver (see lshw output below on same hardware running
SL55). It's the only network card in the machine.
# lshw -C net

If i boot with the SL6 install DVD and specify ks=<kickstart file> on
the grub boot screen, the installation also fails to find the kickstart
file (due to and reverts to a non-kickstart DVD-based install.
ctrl-alt-f2 shows the following errors
getting kickstart file
no network devices in choose network device!
no network drivers for doing kickstart
unable to bring up network
to reiterate, this was a problem in pxe installs in SL53, and working in
SL55
regards
The tg3 driver exists in the SL 6 i386 and x86_64 pxeboot initrd image
me@somewhere initrd-sl6-pxe.i386]# find . -name "*ko*" -print | grep tg3
./modules/2.6.32-71.el6.i686/kernel/drivers/net/tg3.ko.gz
Can you provide the lspci -n output of this card.
