RE: static network configuration ask

["Shabazian, Chip" <Chip.Shabazian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you can use DHCP to assign the network address, even for just the first boot, that makes life the easiest.  Otherwise, you can create a kickstart file that simply takes the values entered on the boot: line and creates a static network entry for them in %pre that is then included in the command section.

 

Search the archives and you will find lots of references to both of the above.

Subject: static network configuration ask

Is there an option that will allow me to automate everything in 
kickstart except just the network portion so that I can have the same kickstart 
config for a bunch of clustered hosts but input the network information 
myself?   

The reason I ask is because I would like to automate 
a lot of other stuff in %post  or on first boot but need networking to be 
set up properly by the time that stuff runs or it will screw all of that 
up.

Thanks in advance
