Hi,
Just installed 7.5 from scratch on a Dell Power Edge 840, 2x1Tb SATA disks. Install went OK, server-only mode, DHCP etc. no problems. On reboot it starts churning out several minutes worth of "Interface 'dev xxxx' not found" where xxxx is an apparently random 4 or 5 digit number. It looks like page after page of this...
.
.
Interface 'dev17637' not found
Interface 'dev8780' not found
Interface 'dev20435' not found
Interface 'dev9222' not found
.
.
After several minutes of this I'll get a login prompt on the console, and I can access the server manager via the LAN as usual. All appears to work.
Thinking it perhaps a faulty install, I rebooted of the 7.5 CD-ROm, ran install again, same result. Google turns up just one unhelpful Cent OS post, and searching here returns nothing as far as I can see. There's no record of the errors in the messages or boot logs, and after that I'm in uncharted waters.
Anyone seen this before?

If they have, they will hopefully have followed this advice:
Don't report problems here - Please report bugs and potential bugs in the bug tracker

Didn't want to post a bug in case it was something obvious I had overlooked.
As it happens, it appears that the cause may have been either a D-Link DGE-528T gigabit PCI nic, or possibly an Intel Pro 1000 PCIe card. I've just pulled the cards and the server boots fine with only the onboard Broadcomm nic, and since I need server-only that's good enough on this occasion. I don't have time to experiment with it unfortunately.

Scratch that... it's a bug, filed now.
