Good morning, all! ...and then tomas.kuchta.lists@gmail.com said... % ... % The install summary page is where you can enable disable % firewall/openSsh/changeSW/runlevel/etc. The next install step is the actual % install, I think. I played with a few installations before finally committing. I of course had to go and add various patterns and packages (yes, including those deprecated tools :-) to get the system I want, but that part all went well. I also got sshd up and happy even though I don't really know my firewall yet. I *thought* I had DHCP beaten by, before actually installing, going into Network and setting the host name and IP address. The first time I did that she stopped hard, so the next time I also included routing & nameserver info, and she continued, so I figured I was in good shape; yay. But ... she grabbed an address from the DHCP server instead of using the one I specified! Arrrrgh. Now that I'm installed and don't particularly want to start over, what's the best way to switch to a static IP address (since I don't have a DHCP server I can configure to hand out specifics that way)? And, for future reference, what should one do at the summary stage to actually ensure a static IP?
