Hello, I am trying to convert our SLES10 ask-list to work with SLES11sp1. However, the option to set the primary ethernet device has changed or doesn't work. Here is what worked in SLES10 <ask-list config:type="list"> <ask> <path>networking,dns,hostname</path> <question>Enter Hostname (server name)</question> <stage>initial</stage> <default>enter your hostname here</default> </ask> <ask> <path>networking,interfaces,interface,device</path> <question>Enter the primary ethernet device:</question> <stage>initial</stage> <default>eth-id-</default> </ask> <ask> <path>networking,interfaces,interface,ipaddr</path> <question>Enter the primary IP Address:</question> <stage>initial</stage> <default>127.0.0.1</default> </ask> <ask> <path>networking,interfaces,interface,netmask</path> <question>Enter the Netmask Address:</question> <stage>initial</stage> <default>255.255.255.0</default> </ask> <ask> <path>networking,routing,routes,0,gateway</path> <question>Enter the primary Gateway Address:</question> <stage>initial</stage> <default>10.112.0.1</default> </ask> </ask-list> And the device entry would be in the format of "eth-id-00-50-56-95-01-0f" so that the rest of our ask-list sections that set the IP and gateway would use that specific MAC address. The reason this is important is that the servers we setup will have 4 - 6 network interfaces and 2 could be active during the install (not on the same network). The <keep_install_network config:type="boolean">true</keep_install_network> works, but we can not guarantee that the interface that the system finds during install will be the one that we need set. Also, I would like to be able to "ask" for the primary and back up network information during install. I have tried using the <listentry> sections but can not find the right combinations nor documentation. Here is the <listentry> I have so far... <listentry> <default>172.16.163.223</default> <path>networking,interfaces,0,ipaddr</path> <question>Enter Server IP address:</question> <stage>initial</stage> <title>IP Address</title> </listentry> <listentry> <default>255.255.255.0</default> <path>networking,interfaces,0,netmask</path> <question>Enter subnet mask:</question> <stage>initial</stage> <title>Enter Subnet Mask:</title> </listentry> <listentry> <default>172.16.163.1</default> <path>networking,routing,0,gateway</path> <question>Enter default gateway address:</question> <stage>initial</stage> <title>IP Address</title> </listentry> I'm expecting it has something to do with the <path> section --- <path>networking,interfaces,0,ipaddr</path> where the # would be the specific interface, but that hasn't proven to be the case so far. Okay, enough ramblings.... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
