(As an aside, I guess this would be the way to fix the "keep_install_network loses DNS and routes bug" described at http://hedgehogpainter.livejournal.com/7022.html ?)
what do you mean? how is that connected to this issue?
It isn't, except that it could presumably be fixed in the same way, with an updated RPM. An "aha!" moment if you will. I wasn't sure how to fix that bug (your post-script linked from the livejournal page is attached to a BNC bug marked private, so I can't view it), so I ended up making separate profiles for each subnet with gateway and DNS info hardcoded. Despite the claim that is was fixed in SLES 11 SP1 it apparently isn't -- a minimal network section with just keep_install_network works until the network configuration runs in stage2 and then it drops the default gateway and DNS servers, which breaks e.g. files retrieved from http. I'm not really worried about that bug, as long as it gets fixed sometime (hopefully by sp2). The vast majority of my installations can use DHCP so it's not really a problem to hardcode the special cases.
