Hi This is a little different query from that posted by Hans Deragon (http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-autoinstall/2004-May/0056.html ). By default, sles9 autoinstallation uses dhcpcd client, how do i configure autoinstall to use dhclient if the installation server is not SuSe (e.g fedora or debian etc) ? please note that the " DHCLIENT_BIN variable in /etc/sysconfig/network/dhcp" applies only if the installation server is a SuSe distribution. any comments/direction is greatly appreciated. thanks in advance kanji --------------------------------- Sell on Yahoo!
