At least formerly you had no choice to enter your IP number this way. It needed a DHCP server. Is this fixed now?
At least since SLES8 you have had the possibility to gove a boot option to linuxrc "ip=x.x.x.x netmask=y.y.y.y gw=z.z.z.z" if you don't have dhcp. In 9.3 and 10.0 you get a question if you want to use dhcp, and if you say no you get a popup where you can enter your details (although since I use dhcp I haven't tried to see if it works or not)
So I can hope that it is fixed now. But I bet it needs some more betas before I will leave my "traditional" way...
manual=1 will start linuxrc. You can specify almost everything on the kernel cmdline. Check linuxrc.html in the linuxrc package. Ciao, Marcus
