Bug Description
Some newer Dell systems (I experienced this on an Optiplex 7000) include an Intel I219-LM NIC that is not supported by the 5.4.0 kernel. Later versions of the HWE kernel do support this NIC.
That makes it impossible to use these systems with the FIPS kernel. Since our imaging environment does not have FIPS mode enabled, we need support for this NIC when used both with and without FIPS mode.
Please backport the latest stable e1000e driver to both the 5.4.0 non-FIPS kernel & the 5.4.0 FIPS kernel.
