Thank you James, but I don't want to pass throught eth2 for boot pxe
(tftp) and dhcp configuration.
And I want eth2, later, only for nfs mounting ...
But first I have another problem.
Just thinking now I only use eth0 :
I have in my elilo.conf :
image=RHEL3U2/vmlinuz
label="RedHat AS 3 U2 Inst Graphique"
read-only
initrd=RHEL3U2/initrd.img
append="console=ttyS1,115200
ks=nfs:10.0.0.1:/tftpboot/ks/ksRHEL3U2.cfg ksdevice=eth0"
and in my ks.cfg :
#System language
lang en_US
#Language modules to install
langsupport --default=en_US
#System keyboard
keyboard us
#System mouse
mouse genericwheelusb
#Sytem timezone
timezone Europe/Paris
#Root password
rootpw 3615jj
#Reboot after installation
reboot
#Install Red Hat Linux instead of upgrade
install
#Use NFS installation Media
nfs --server=10.0.0.1 --dir=/releaseBAS2/RHEL3U2
.....
The install process ask me language support for installation,
installation mode (nfs, ftp, cdrom ...) why ???
Thanks.
