Many thanks Florian. Error seems to be displayed when vmxnet3 is used.
If I use another one like e1000, warning is not displayed. Strange ...,

Cannot install downloaded updates and dual boot issue
Hello, I just installed SL6 from the Live CD and I'm having two post install issues. 1) I am unable to complete my initial update. Whenever I run 'sudo yum update' the updates download fine but will not install. I recieve this error: --- Install 2 Package(s) Upgrade 123 Package(s) Total size: 172 M Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 0608b895: NOKEY Public key for openvpn-2.2.1-1.el6.x86_64.rpm is not installed --- My question is, where do I get this GPG key, and others assuming they come up? 2) I dual boot Linux Windows 7. SL6 is on my first 1.5 TB HDD and Windows 7 is on my 2nd 500GiB HDD. The grub boot menu does not show up on startup, instead it goes straight to the SL splash screen. How do I change this? I edited my /boot/grub/grub.conf and these are my changes: -- # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition.

Openvpn is included on the LiveCD and should be updated over the LiveCD extra repository. As a workaround edit as root the file /etc/yum.repos.d/livecd-extra.repo and add the line gpgcheck=0 I have to think about how to fix this bug. Cheers, Urs
