I tried it but my grub bootprompt doesn't accept ifconfig. It tells me error 27 unknown command. I'm using SuSE 8.2 pro with grub 0.93-23 as installed from dvd. I recompiled grub and had the same error. Is there a difference between grub 0.93 and 0.92 installation as described at: http://sdb.suse.de/de/sdb/html/fhassel_grub_overview.html ?
There is an error in the above mentioned document: shouldn't be "dd if=stage2 of=/dev/fd0 seek=1" but "dd if=stage2.network of=/dev/fd0 seek=1"
The whole thing doesn't work. The network card is an onboard Intel eepro100 which isn't correctly recognized by grub's eepro100 driver. SuSE 8.2's driver recognizes the card. Image from http://www.rom-o-matic.com will recognize the card but uses DHCP which I can't use because I MUST ENTER my own IP address and hostname at bootprompt. So I'm back at the beginning: How can I tell autoyast to load module eepro100 from modules3 disk? If I enter this at the bootprompt it will be ignored.
