What happens if you leave installnic and primarynic blank? xCAT should
autodetect in that case. There's a high chance that 'eth0' is not what you
think it is and the autodetection should overcome it.

Subject: [xcat-user] ksdevice problem
Hello
I'm provsioning nodes with multiple NICS. the nodes are receiving an
image, after hardware initialise they fail with error "No way to
determine which NIC to use, and cannot prompt in cmdline mode.
Halting. Please use the ksdevice= parameter to specify the device
name (e.g., eth0) or the MAC address of the NIC to use for installation."
Installnic is set to eth0 in the noderes table.
tabdump noderes
#node,servicenode,netboot,tftpserver,tftpdir,nfsserver,monserver,nfsdir,installnic,primarynic,discoverynics,cmdinterface,xcatmaster,current_osimage,next_osimage,nimserver,routenames,nameservers,proxydhcp,comments,disable
"compute",,"pxe","172.20.100.1",,"172.20.100.1",,,"eth0","eth0",,,"172.20.100.1",,,,,,,,
Where else do i need configure ksdevice. I've tried placing "ksdevice
eth0" in compute.tmpl and that didnt work.
Thanks
