OS is RH 6.2 we are facing two issues - 1. after successful installation OS uefi boot option added as the first in the boot sequence (before the pxe). after that the node will not boot to PXE and there is no option to re-install the node or actually do anything that require network boot. node will always boot to the OS. 2. When installing a node we sometimes get the following error - mounting /tmp as tmprunning install... running /sbin/loader detecting hardware... waiting for hardware to initialize... detecting hardware... waiting for hardware to initialize... Waiting for NetworkManager to configure eth0. There was an error configuring your network interface. This cannot be corrected in cmdline mode. Halting. Loader exited unexpectedly! Backtrace: /sbin/loader[0x409c73] /lib64/libc.so.6(exit+0xe2)[0x7f7d45fffdb2] /sbin/loader[0x42028b] /sbin/loader[0x420975] /sbin/loader[0x41ba7f] /sbin/loader[0x413e4b] /sbin/loader[0x40d013] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xfd)[0x7f7d45fe8cdd] /sbin/loader[0x4079c9] install exited abnormally [1/1] The system will be rebooted when you press Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Alt-Delete. Sometime is in bold because sometimes it does work (on the same node) and the node successfully installed. strange. Any ideas? thx in advance.
