I'm also compiling on CentOS 5, same versions you listed above with the exception of a newer kernel (kernel-2.6.18-53.1.4.el5.i686). With the change to cifs rather than smbmount, I had to fix the boot CD to be able to find my server. All DHCP clients on my network get a search path of "cns.ohiou.edu" (since that's the group that manages DHCP), but my server is ntinstall.math.ohiou.edu. Referencing //ntinstall/install worked fine when using smbmount - IIRC because it will do a broadcast NETBIOS to find the machine - but cifs failed. I fixed this by including an /etc/hosts file on my boot disk that lists the proper IP for ntinstall. I'm not sure what's going on with your 755. I've got 8 of them, and the couple I've tested the new CD on have worked fine, and the 6 I deployed with 4.7 upgraded to 2.6.23.3 also worked just fine. Might be one for the Linux lists at Dell?
