Hello, Moving the conversation here, as it's probably more appropriate than in general help. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Razvan Cosma Date: Wed, Feb 8, 2012 at 11:12 AM Subject: network configuration in post scripts? To: opensuse@opensuse.org  Hello everyone, In version 11 (both opensuse and sles) I was configuring various system parameters in the <chroot-scripts> section, which had the filesystem mounted and network (dhcp) up. In 12 though, my changes (ifcfg, hostname, routes, udev) are overwritten by the last autoyast step after reboot. I've also tried post-scripts and init-scripts, same problem. A working setup in 11 is: <networking><interfaces config:type="list"><interface><bootproto>dhcp4</bootproto><device>eth0</device><startmode>auto</startmode></interface></interfaces></networking> this ensures network is up on the first interface, the post script is supposed to configure the others <packages config:type="list"><package>dialog</package><package>wget</package> <chroot-scripts config:type="list"><script><chrooted config:type="boolean">true</chrooted><source><![CDATA[ sysid=$(dialog --no-cancel --stdout --backtitle "Post-install configuration" --inputbox "Enter system id:" 8 30 localhost) read iname mac ip gw hname <<<$(IFS=" "; wget -q -O - "http://server?$sysid") echo $hname > /etc/HOSTNAME sed -i -e "s/\($mac.*NAME=\"\).*/\1$iname\"/" /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules echo -e "BOOTPROTO='static'\nSTARTMODE='onboot'\nIPADDR='$ip'\n" > /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-$iname #other various system settings ]]></source></script></chroot-scripts> This ensured that udev always assigns a specific IP to the correct interface, data is in some SQL. The files are zeroed in 12, though, any hints on what has changed?
