Re: [suse-autoinstall] Cannot disable DHCP

So I have gotten a little further now.... but still no luck.....

I am using the following for my isolinux.cfg entry

# Autoyast Installation
label autoyast
kernel linux
append initrd=initrd ramdisk_size=65536 splash=silent showopts netsetup=1
install=http://169.10.63.215/x86sp3/ autoyast=http://169.10.63.215
/xml/server.xml

The netsetup=1 ends up prompting for IP, netmask, default gateway, and
nameserver...... but then the install fails. It seems to still be trying to
use DHCP. If I use DHCP it will work. Even if I use the exact same IP,
netmask, gw, ns that I was trying to use in the static config.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
David Bellis

[suse-autoinstall] Cannot disable
DHCP










Hello,

I am trying to build a custom boot cd that will use a static IP address to
connect to a HTTP installation source. I can get the boot cd to work with a
DHCP configuration, but no matter what I do I cannot get it to use a static
IP address.

Has anyone done this successfully? Any help or examples would be greatly
appreciated.


Thanks,
David Bellis
