What bothers me more are some shreds of IPv6. As I said, I disabled it (in Yast), then I manually disabled services like ip6tables and dhcp6, and I still see during power up and down the messages about IPv6 addresses configuration for my NIC. It causes power down delay, between other things.
Isn't there a way to disable it on the command line?
IIR there's also a config file of equivents... I think that /etc/sysctl.conf where I have
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
It is the same here, net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 =1
wicked show-xml all produces <ipv6> <enabled>false</enabled> <forwarding>false</forwarding> <accept-ra>host</accept-ra> <autoconf>true</autoconf> <privacy>prefer-temporary</privacy> <accept-redirects>true</accept-redirects> </ipv6> for all interfaces.
Hmm. Can't you hand edit that?
And still I see during powering up:
[ 39.190148] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): enp2s0: link is not ready [ 40.813486] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): enp2s0: link becomes ready
Why IPv6 is doing something? Should I re-build initramfs? More voodoo? Something smells bad here. If IPv6 was disabled in YaST, I would not expect any IPv6-related leftovers.
I agree with you on that last, but I rarely do things like that with yast. I like to see what I'm configuring. I might make a change with yast and then look to see what changed as part of a learning process, but I've found that yast can be a crutch. Other posters to this list beside yourself have shown me that yast isn't comprehensive enough. Perhaps it was great enough and something got dropped in the conversion process. IIR part of it was automated. Automation is only as good as its programmed to be. I don't know about 13.2 and Drakut, but the mkinitrd in 13.1 and previously looked at what the running systems was when building the new, so if you had a ipv6 module when you ran it, you got a new kernel with ipv6. So make sure you modules are disbaled and try booting with ipv6 disabled on the command line. Then and only then run the drakut/mkinitrd Again, pre-drakut you could configure the default GRUB2 command line for the initrd. See /etc/default/grub -- perhaps you still can. -- /"\ \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML Mail / \ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
