Brugh,. I figured out the problem on my setup, and at this point I'm shelving EDA, sorry. It's not the appliance (it's actually great) It's because of the networking issues, basically I have several c7000's each which have etherchannel trunks to them, which are passed to the blades. The blades will pxe boot to a vlan 80 which get's them to boot off of EDA, but then on "stage 2" which is the redhat install, I haven't figured out how to get it to connect to VLAN 80 to get access to the image, and kickstart files. I have a feeling this is what you were talking about Brugh. So unless there's a way to get that to work, I doubt I'll be using anything that uses a PXE boot. I can't change the networking on the c7000 as it get's complicated and adds time the idea here is to limit the time spent on doing this stuff. It would be handy if the appliance would make a iso file you could download/burn and use as well. For when you have a machine in a secured environment or like me have problems with the network.
