    Hello,

    We've been searching far and wide for a solution with a scenario that we are having. Hoping someone would have an insight here. Thx in advance.

    We have TFTPD running under Windows 2003 with 2 NICS 192.168.0.X and 192.168.200.X with pxelinux.0 as the bootloader

    We've setup TFTP PXE boot on the 192.168.0.X network with a typical pxelinux.cfg\default

    During boot, the PC that we want to image picks up an 192.168.0.X IP without any issues from the TFTPD and continues on with
    loading vmlinuz and initrd.img

    However, when it reaches this point, is stuck.... (is not hanging but seems like is waiting....)

    [ 8.477373] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link down
    [ 8.478164] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link down
    [ 8.478985] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
    Begin: Running /scripts/live-premount ... Waiting for ethernet card(s) up... If it fail, maybe the ethernet card is not supported ky the kernel 3.8.0-19-generic?
    done.
    [ 10.348346] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link up
    [ 10.349250] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready

    We saw a few comments where by adding live-netdev="eth1" to kernel parameters is the fix but we didn't have luck with that...

    If anyone can shad some light on this would be muchly appreciated.

    James,
