The Intel driver instructions needs rpmbuild (per link in first post). I am 
not able to get "sudo yum install rpm-build" to work. It is going to an 
"http://container:8080/......" url. However, dns is not resolving for 
container. So I ran the container creation script using the IP of the 1G 
NIC. Running the install for rpm-build now says I don't have permissions. 
Note, ping to google.com resolves and works fine.


First question is, do we configure the physical NICs before we run 
container scripts or after? If after, then how do I get permissions to 
install rpm-build? If before, how do I get the repo to point to Centos (I 
tried this too with no luck).


Note, I am running the simplex all-in-one bare metal install. I need to 
test the NIC in one server before I buy all the other cards and cables.


Thanks for the advice...Scott


Okay even more confused, did you try to even install stx on bare metal with 
these cards? I also have Intel based cards and they work fine with the 
default bootimage.iso ... so What card do you have ?

Hello everyone,


Does anyone know someone who can install StarlingX with OpenStack/K8m 
remotely at a fair price? I have tried multiple times but not getting 
anywhere. Stuck on figuring out how to install the NIC drivers and set up 
the VLANs correctly.




its really pretty straight forward to install, not sure what you mean by 
"install the NIC drivers", unless they are "unsupported" cards, then its 
alot of work for building a custom image.
so what cards are they that require "installing NIC drivers" ? or are you 
guessing really ?


Servers:
- 2 controllers
- 2 Rook/Ceph storage
- 8 hosts/workers
- Dell PowerEdge C6100 X5650 dual Xeon hex-cores 


Networking:
- Dual 10GbE NICs in each server
- Dual 1GbE NICs in each server
- Dual Dell S6010 switches running FTOS 9.x


I am a one man band so not a lot of funds, but getting someone to show me 
the ropes would be worth it. 


Regards,


Scott
