[Bug 347482] New: Remote network installation and changed IP issue
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=347482 Summary: Remote network installation and changed IP issue Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: diego.ercolani@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Customer When you activate the remote installation procedure, is needed to provide in the command line the ip address of the box with the linuxrc parameter "hostip" after first reboot you have to configure the root account and vary hardware things, among the others, the address of the network card you've used to install the system. (you are in a session with the command /usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.ssh) In fact, if you change the address, the system flushes the old configuration and use correctly the new one but, without telling you anything, your connection is dropped. The solution should avoid this verifying that no-one is connected while reconfiguring the ip address or firewalling and giving user a warning.

I configure a single IP to all the new machines 192.168.21.1: label rinstall kernel linux append initrd=initrd usessh=1 sshpassword="secretpassword" install=http://repository/10.3/oss?device=eth0 hostip=192.168.21.1 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.21.254 nameserver=192.168.21.254 device=eth0 then, when yast asks to configure the networking, via ssh I set the new IP address, and then I'm taked out from the ssh session as immediately Yast configure the new ethernet address. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The comment #2 says defines a behavior you could close as WONTFIX if you wanted but there might be a solution: * Do not set 192.168.21.1 to all new machines (set the one you want to use later) - this one was simple, wasn't it :) ;)? * Change 'rcnetwork restart' not to restart the interface which is in use by the installation (if remote installation is selected). There is a YAST_RUNNING (or similar) env variable that defines the installation is currently running. And install.inf defines the installation method (or Linuxrc::usessh or Linuxrc::vnc). The first solution is for user, the second one would have to be implemented (or fixed). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
