Summary: setting the computer name Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alinm.elena@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: ---

It may be very useful if the user can change the name of the computer even if is in Automatic configuration during the installation. Reason why? All other major OS let you do that. This should save a lot of bytes on internet from people asking how to change the hostname after install.

--- Comment #1 from Michal Zugec mzugec@novell.com 2009-03-02 04:08:28 MST --- Only if we move this dialog into 1st stage, but on the other hand, it's required there for firstboot. Lukas, your opinion?

--- Comment #2 from Lukas Ocilka locilka@novell.com 2009-03-02 04:43:04 MST --- I'd definitely keep it for the second stage because of the non-automatic configuration and firstboot but you could create a plug-in for installation proposal. However that would require to move (or copy) the whole network proposal to the first stage. I'd say we already have similar feature request for the fist stage.

--- Comment #3 from Michal Zugec mzugec@novell.com 2009-03-02 04:53:56 MST --- Alin M Elena: sorry, but it's not acceptable (automatic means automatic ;-)) Maybe we could improve YaST on running system or better document how to change hostname, but any additional interaction during Automatic Configuration is not a good idea
