I was looking over the contents of post_install_network_config in
the
devel branch of cobbler and it looks pretty good. The idea that one
wants to setup VLANs or bonding as part of the post-install process is a
good one.
Anyway, there are a few changes that I'd propose though for RHEL/Centos5
and Fedora and several that would be needed to make RHEL/Centos4 work
correctly.
For RHEL/Centos5 and Fedora the bonding parameter 'max_bonds' in
modprobe.conf isn't really needed, so it can be dropped.

These changes look good to me, thanks for the feedback. :)
In general the VLAN stuff looks good too, but it would be hard to know
for sure without testing it pretty well.
Long term it would be great to support VLANs on bonded interfaces, but
there are not a bunch of people doing that right now (and I didn't write
any patches, so I should probably shutup :), so it's probably not a
priority.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean here, it was always my intention to
support VLANs on bonding devices (and by request, also bonding several
VLAN devices together).
Creating a device named bond0.10 should add VLAN 10 to bond0. If this
stopped working, that's a defect. ;)
