Hi,

I&#039;m running into some trouble installing Fedora 7 using pxeboot.
I&#039;ve searched the forum but did not find a complete answer,
that&#039;s why i&#039;m posting my question.
My server has two e1000 compatible NICs. I&#039;ve found some forum
posts that explain e1000 issues with Fedora 7 but i could not verify
that i&#039;m having the same problem.
I&#039;m seeing the following:
After anaconda starts it will request a IP using dhcp. On the dhcp
server i see incoming requests and outgoing acks. For some reason
anaconda can&#039;t use the network. Anaconda will give me an error
saying that it can&#039;t access the installation tree.

It looks like anaconda/dhclient doesn&#039;t pick up the ACK, or some
thing&#039;s preventing network access. Unfortunately it&#039;s too
early in the bootstage for me to check. (ALT-F2 doesn&#039;t have a
shell yet) Pinging the IP address from the dhcp server results in
100% packetloss.

When i use the same parameters in FC6 everything works smoothly.

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Best regards,
Peter
