maybe there is something wrong with your spell,please verify '–hostname',it '--' not '–' That’s what I ended up doing. I change the host name in /etc/hosts and /etc/sysconfig/network, and I manually reconfigure ethX by playing with the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX files. Everything is done in a %post section. I just wished there was an easier way to configure networking in the kickstart configuration file. Have a nice day GV From:[email protected][mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf OfMoray Henderson Sent:Friday, January 21, 2011 8:26 AM To:'Discussion list about Kickstart' Subject:RE: help with network configuration From:Gianluca Varenni [mailto:[email protected]] Is there a way in the kickstart configuration file to tell anaconda to configure the network interfaces with some parameters (e.g. DHCP vs static IP, onboot…) but do *not* bring them up during installation (so in practice just write the ifcfg-ethX files)? I tried with network --bootproto=dhcp --device=eth0 --onboot=on –hostname=myhost but the problem is that during the installation it tries to bring eth0 up and get the IP address (eventually timing out). If I don’t put that line in the kickstart file, all the interfaces are silently configured for DHCP and onboot=yes, and the hostname is not configured. Don’t configure the network in the kickstart and write the hostname configuration from the %post section; or configure a dummy IP with thenetworkoption then edit the network configuration in %post?
