RE: How Do I Get Rid Of DHCP!!?! -- Same Problem in 9.1

No matter what I do to the info file, I still can't get linuxrc to not try to do dhcp on eth0. I look at console number 2 and I see that it has even configured eth0 with the right IP parameters, but it tries to do DHCP anyway. I am trying this with 9.1 now. Same behavior. What gives? Paul P.S. If you care, my info file looks like this: insmod: 3c59x netdevice: eth0 DHCP: 0 HostIP: 192.168.1.5 netmask: 255.255.255.0 gateway: 192.168.1.1 server: 192.168.1.18 autoyast: nfs://192.168.1.18/opt/Linux/SUSE-9/profiles/test.xml

This is something new in 9.1/SLES9. Add netsetup=0 to skip DHCP. 3. Advanced Network Setup The netsetup keyword allows advanced network configurations and enables dialogs to setup the network where required. netsetup=1 the normal network setup questions netsetup=xxx,yyy just xxx and yyy netsetup=+xxx,-yyy default, additionally xxx, but not yyy xxx could have the following values: dhcp, hostip, gateway, netmask, nameserver. nameserverN asks for N nameservers (max. 4). For example, the following can be entered on the command line: netsetup=-dhcp,+nameserver3 discip@pjm.com wrote:
