I'm trying to FAI a machine with two NICs, only one of which I'm<br>
using. It netboots, but hangs at:<br>
<br>
IP-Config: eth0 hardware address 00:e0:81:45:ed:8a mtu 1500 DHCP RARP<br>
<br>
That's never going to answer, because that's not the NIC I'm using,<br>
but it never times out either. How do I get things past this point?<br>
