Looks like an anaconda bug.
I just pulled system-config-network-1.4.3.src.rpm and found a jewel. In
src/netconfpkg/NCDevice.py lines 308 and 309:
if self.BootProto == "static":
self.BootProto = "none"
So apparently the maintainers of system-config-network are aware that
anaconda has introduced a bug. Question becomes: why put on a bandage
in the network configurator instead of fixing the source of the problem?
Note also that any user scripts that follow the documentation will break.
I'll pull the anaconda sources and see if I can find where this is
introduced.
...and following up on my offer:
Pulled anaconda-11.3.0.50.tar.bz2 and found the source of this
confusion. In loader2/net.c line 1421:
fprintf(f, "BOOTPROTO=static\n");
Should be:
fprintf(f, "BOOTPROTO=none\n");
Guess I'll have to learn bugzilla...
Side note: until a couple of years ago I always used "static". The
docs changed my ways ;D
