Is it an Intel NIC? I vaguely remember seeing a post somewhere about Intel cards allocating a huge amount of buffers, causing issues when booting on a kvm guest, however I can't seem to find it now. Also, I'm not 100% clear on which situations are working for you and which ones aren't - #1 and #2 seem to be the same. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
