I’m having trouble installing SL6 on a Dell PE1950 via PXE kickstart.  The node boots and loads the installer, but I get a message “Waiting for NetworkManager to configure eth0” followed by the error “Network Error: There was an error configuring your network interface”.  It looks like the bnx2 ethernet driver isn’t loaded.  What is the procedure to add this driver to initrd in the install media?  Would creating a driver update image that is referenced in the kickstart file be a more elegant solution?

Thanks,
Randy
