Try ether=0,0,eth0 (or netdev= which is the same) as kernel parameter (you can give it with fai-chboot). You have to force the kernel not to activate the oTher NIC, which is not defined in dhcpd.conf. The command nameif can't be used, because the interface is already up, and we can't shut if down because of our nfsroot from remote. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
