I like this option because specifying the hostname as the DHCP_CLIENT_ID is a common usage for smaller networks. So asking for the hostname and propagating it as default for DHCP_CLIENT_ID would help me. I often boot several systems (one at a time, in sequence) on the same hardware, so the map from HWADDR to hostname changes often, and the DHCP server does not know the correct answer unless the client specifies it. -- _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
