I need to work on a host which has been offline and powered down for some time. I has CentOS-6.9 installed. At some point it had two nics, one on the motherboard (still present and working) and one as an expansion card.
When booted the console displays:
pciehp 0000:00:1c:0:pcie04: Failed to check link status
repeatedly.
How do I tell the host to ignore the missing nic or remove it from the system configuration so that the error is removed.
