Hi, on new DELL R820 I'm currently trying to install SLES11SP1. A newer version is not possible (software reasons ...). I used some older autoinstall file, which works for old nodes. On the new node the installations fails. 1) The initrd was modified (new tg3 and megariad_sas module. But both modules are not loaded automatically. I have to do this by hand. 2) When I start the installation process after loading the modules, everything seems to be fine, but after the first boot the network devices have changed. In in the udev rules file the eth{0,1} switched to eth{2,3} and eth{2,3} switched to eth{0,1}. So after the first boot, no network is available and I have to switch the udev rules (doing a rescue boot). Therefore not everything of the autoinstall script is executed. *) How can I check, why the modules are *not* loaded ? *) Can I force in the autoinstall file to create the udev rules according to the mac addresses (lowest mac adr. -> eth0; lowest mac adr.+1 ->eth1,...) -- Bye, Peer _________________________________________________________ Max-Planck-Institut fuer Biogeochemie Dr. Peer-Joachim Koch Hans-Knöll Str.10 Telefon: ++49 3641 57-6705 D-07745 Jena Telefax: ++49 3641 57-7705
