[opensuse-autoinstall] Config question about autoinst.xml: Automatically generating the MAC address in net-udev

Dear all, The autoinst.xml has this line in it and this is normal. <net-udev config:type="list"> <rule> <name>eth0</name> <rule>ATTR{address}</rule> <value>00:1c:c4:a8:27:42</value> </rule> </net-udev> This profile is being modified so that it can be used as a genericone for many systems, but all systems have different MAC addresses, so the line would not be useful in a generic profile. i) Can I remove the lines referencing n-etudev and let autoyast use the first interface it happens upon or, ii) have the newly build machine automatically add the MAC address with a line similar to: <value>auto</value> ? I have searched a little this morning and could not come up with a lot of ideas.

if you only have one interface, then you can remove the complete net-udev part from the profile. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
