"as i was wondering how to specify IP info etc"
See the manpage for options on "cobbler system add", or alternatively,
set up the web user interface. I prefer the command line.
The MAC if not specified is randomly generated in the range reserved
for Xen MAC addresses, and it's only important if you want to set up
DHCP reservations (fixing an IP to the MAC) or, transitively, fixing a
hostname to the IP. Cobbler's DHCP management features can do both
for you (the latter requires dnsmasq not DHCPd) -- or you could manage
those yourself. If you are ok with random mac's, IP's, and so on, then
you probably don't care.
yes thanks - i have been using this fine for a few months now with
'real' systems so it was assigning IP's to a virt system that was
slightly puzzling me. So i take it that i can add a system and just omit
the reference to the mac address and then reference that system to koan
to get the virt machine installed.
