I can't remember the version, but at one point we made it so you can leave 
installnic/primarynic blank, and we'd autodetect based on whet PXE booted.

With HS23, the on-board 10 Gb ports add some degree of surprise in how 
they interact with the two on-board gigabit interfaces.

I'm trying to set up some new HS23 blades to boot a stateless image. The 
issue I'm running into is that xcat sees the boot interface as eth0, but 
Linux sees the boot interface as eth2. What I mean is if I set installnic 
and primarynic to eth2, getmacs retrieves the wrong mac address. If I set 
them to eth0, it retrieves the correct mac address, but then dhcp fails in 
the initrd because it's trying eth0. I'm running an older version of xcat, 
2.5.1, but I looked through the wiki and see no mention of hs23. Anyone 
have any experience with xcat and hs23s? Thanks,

Stephen
