You need to add a option in your parameter like this

label sles10-x86_64

kernel installer/x86_64/sles10/linux

append initrd=installer/x86_64/sles10/initrd autoyast=http://192.168.1.1/config/common/sles10-x86_64.xml install=nfs://192.168.1.2/install/x86_64/sles10

Shaohui

Best Regards

Subject: [opensuse-autoinstall] Problem going from DHCP to static address during autoinstall

Hi.

I'm using autoyast to install SLES9 on a machine.

The install itself works. But I have a problem with the network configuration.

During the install the machine obtains a dhcp address and performs the install.

When the install is applying the static ipadress defined in the autoyast xml configuration file the dhcp address isn't released and I get something looking like this:

2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,NOTRAILERS,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000

    link/ether 00:17:a4:f8:19:7d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

    inet 10.73.18.249/24 brd 10.255.255.255 scope global eth0

    inet 10.73.18.55/24 brd 10.73.18.255 scope global secondary eth0

    inet6 fe80::217:a4ff:fef8:197d/64 scope link

       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000

    link/ether 00:17:a4:f8:19:7c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

The address 10.73.18.249 is provided by the DHCP during install.

The address 10.73.18.55 is defined in the autoyast configuration file.

This gives problems later on when mounting NFS shares, because the NFS shares is restricted to the address 10.73.18.55 and the machine connects to the NFS server as 10.73.18.249

How is this resolveable?

Is this a known bug?
