Felipe,
You should have sent me that patch! i will try to see what i can do to include
that directly into OSCAR.
Always remember that we are open to include any kind of modifications that can
ease your specific case, especially if we can find a generic and clean way to
do so. In your case, your patch does not seem to be intrusive, i think we can
include something similar that will work in all cases.
I will try to see what i can do about that...
Regards,

Chris,
I had a similar problem, but maybe isn't the same as yours. My setup is with
Dell 2950
machines, with four Gb ethernet cards. Installation happens with no problem (In
fact, I've
made 20 installs until I've discovered the issue :().
I think the problem could be systemimager. What heppened to me is that after
installation,
because of udev, network cards were randomly selected! I made a small patch to
installation script for fixing the network card to eth0.
You'll need three changes:
- - In directory /var/lib/systemimager/images/<image>/etc/udev/rules.d
Comment out file '60-net.rules'.
Create a new file called '70-persistent-net.rules' with this example content:
# BEGIN
SUBSYSTEM=="net", SYSFS{address}=="MAC", NAME="eth0"
# EOF
The string "MAC" will be replaced by the installation script with the MAC of
your ethernet
adaptor.
Next, you'll have to modify your '/var/lib/systemimager/scripts/<image>.master'
script
(around line #595). Copy your master file to 'master file'.orig

Worked for me, but ymmv.
