SOLVED: Intsaller Cannot access the network

[ghostwolf]

Hey All,

Having an issue running "hda-install XXXXX". Gets the error "the installer cannot access the network to retrieve yoru HDA settings. Please double check that the machine has network/internet access. Try 'dhclient eth0' (as root) to configure your network interface."

My server (DL360 G5) doesn't use eth0 it uses enp3s0 instead and its up. I can ping google.com just fine. Can run fedora updates just fine. How can I specify the installer to use enp3s0 instead of eth0?

Thanks

It should alias the current network adapter as etho.

Please provide the URL for:

Code: Select all

fpaste --sysinfo

Also have you checked the Network troubleshooting guidance? There may be something going on that isn't normal causing the issue.

BTW, do you have more than one network card enabled on your system? If so, that is likely the issue. Only one can be enabled when installing Amahi.

So i figured out - had to rename the nics to eth0 and eth1. Restarted networking and it shows proper naming convention, still says same error.

And yes both nic's are enabled that might be the cause, I was planning on nic bonding. If Amahi doesn't like that I can disable nic2 and see if that helps. --Brought eth1 "down" same error

Yes only one nic can be enabled when installing.

See minimum hardware requirements in the wiki.

Got the install to work - had to disable eth1 and rename the old ifcfg file to eth0. Ty for the help

No problem. Glad to hear it's working.

Marking this one as solved.
