Hello everyone:
I was upgrading my regression testing server, and bumping the version
of guests to RHEL 6.4. I started getting massive failures in tests,
because the main network interface could never get up. The following
is from a serial session when virt-test tried to repair the problem:

After looking at the problem, it seems to trace back to the following
lines in the *general kickstart of all RHEL6 guests*:
15:21:51 DEBUG| sed -i "/^HWADDR/d"
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
That leaves the eth0 related file invalid so the interface can't go up.
I'm downloading the 6.4 image to see if I can reproduce, but in the
mean time, did you ever see anything similar? We need to start having
different kickstarts for different versions of RHEL. The current one
is already super bloated, the base kickstart should lead to a lean
guest install.
As I don't have a lot of time to work on virt-test maintenance these
days, I'll have to revert back to 6.3.
I did not meet this error before.
Will try to reproduce and fix this issue. Testing it now.
Thanks
Thanks,
Lucas
