ASSERT network device problem

[Jon Warner]

Hi Guys,

I'm having trouble getting kickstart running properly as part of a PXE
install on RHEL3. The pxe boot seems to work fine, and the installer
starts correctly, but once you try to manually start a http/ftp/nfs
install it refuses to find a network driver.

Alt-F3 reveals

*Getting kickstart file
*ASSERT: no network device in chooseNetworkInterface
*no network drivers for doing kickstart.
*unable to bring up network
*trying to mount device hda


The nic in question is an intel e1000. 

The kickstart script looks like this:

And is called by a pxelinux config file containing:

default rhel-3-es

label rhel-3-es
    kernel rhel3/vmlinuz
    append ksdevice=eth0
ks=nfs:10.10.158.84:/home/pxeboot/rhel3/ks.cfg ip=dhcp console=tty0
console=ttys0,19200 load_ramdisk=1 initrd=rhel3/initrd.img


Any help on this one would be much appreciated.

Thanks
