but Suse does not see the NIC on the newer G6 blades. I do know that
They you should get in touch which HP Support and ask what Linux kernel and which NIC driver is supported for your current firmware. I had a similar issue and my solution was. - Got new driver package for the NIC - Build the nic module and REPLACED the one on the initrd ( which will be used during your network boot ) - A script replaces the nic module on the installed system from the still mounted initrd during installation. Example: <scripts> <chroot-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <chrooted config:type="boolean">false</chrooted> <filename>tasks.after.install</filename> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <location></location> <source>
