Hi,
I would like to make some changes with network during installation.
First when we need network during installation:
- when use remote UI (ssh, ssh -Y, vnc)
- when use remote installation source (nfs, http, smb, ftp)
- when use network storage (iSCSI)
Now: Decission whether start network is done in Linuxrc, but YaST do it
again (and there are some cases when they do it with different results).
Plan: So YaST will believe Linuxrc - if network is currently running,
write its configuration to installed system
(network_finish.ycp->create_interface).
Now: For some cases network is run from initscript, for some cases from
yast client
Plan:After reboot (SecondStage or FirstBoot) if initscript will find any
network configuration (/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-*) just start
network (S07-medium, inst_netsetup.ycp completly dropped)
What is purpose of that:
Network during installation will be determinable, without much code on
many places doing same thing.
Ease to understand, easy to debug.
Only change what I know when upgrade, network will start (with
rcSuSEfirewall2 reload so IMHO nothing bad) because there will be old
network configuration.
What do you think about this? Might there be any problem in autoyast or
firstboot or somewhere?
Bye,
Michal
