Thanks,

But I'm not looking at the parameter --ethtool in the kickstart file.
Please note, that you have the opportunity to define several options
during boot like ks=http://<server>/<ks file> ip=<something>
And I saw on the Fedoraproject that there is also an option
ethX_ethtool="" available to define some stuff during installation (when
it tries to obtain an IP)

_Delays

But unfortunately I don't see any reference regarding this in the
documentation and was curios if its build in, into RHEL or not.
And it also doesn't seem to work!

Thanls and all the best,
