Hi,
I'd like to use the disaster recovery scenario for installing a pool of 
identical computers.  But I don't have them now, so I use a VM to prepare 
the image/backup.
The same would be true in a real disaster recovery, where one has to use a 
new mainboard.
I'm mostly concerned about Network. The new network device names don't 
change and one gets rid about the MAC address problem. But how do I 
explain to autoyast to just use "the network used before for PXE" in 
conjunction with software from image/backup.

I know there is a setting to preserve network config, but I guess this is 
overwritten by the image. So I would have to preserve 
/etc/sysconfig/network/en* in the backup-restore-script.sh?
