Where is this 169.254.0.0/16 network coming from when I build a system
via autoinstall? I don't have it defined in my config file, but it
magically appears whenever I use autoinstall to build a SLES9 machine.
I don't have this problem using autoinstall and SLES8.
Also, would this phantom network have something to do with my gateway
not working when the machine comes up? I have the gateway defined in
the config file, but it never seems to make it over to the system at the
end of the install.
Here's a netstat from a freshly built machine:
teeth:~ # netstat -rn

This is Zeroconf, it is configured by default and has nothing to do with your autoyast configuration. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeroconf Anas Jon Thorson wrote:

Is this network the reason why my gateway doesn't show up? I could put something in the post-install to clean this mess up, but that seems like a hack. Surely there is an elegant way to fix this.
Thanks.

Ok, so I'll live with that network existing. Any idea as to why my default route isn't being configured? Thanks. -j On Wed, 2005-01-05 at 15:32 -0500, Anas Nashif wrote:
