I'm having problems to use this option inside the kickstart file network --bootproto=static --device=eth0 --gateway=192.168.1.254 --ip=192.168.1.1 --netmask=255.255.255.0 --onboot=on with a nfs or http installation. nfs --server ksbox.local.domain --dir /fedora/8.0/os In our departement we use a templating system that we wrote since redhat 9 to fedora 6 (and scientific linux 4, a redhat derived) without problems. When I prepared the kickstart for the new fedora 8, I noticed that anaconda (11.3.0.50) does not use the static ip information provided by the kickstart and chooses a dhcp configuration. To verify that it is not an error of our kickstart creator, I prepared a kickstart file on a fedora 8 machine with the system-config-kickstart script. But I found the same problem. I also switched the network and nfs lines but i found no difference. At first I thought about a new anaconda behaviour (nfs install uses only dynamic configuration) but having a look at the source code of the anaconda loader I have the impression that the network bootstrap follows the same principles. I searched through the mailing list for keywords bootproto and 11.3.0.50 with no success. I also googled about but i did not find any hint. I don't know if it's a known anaconda issue or a syntax error of my kickstart.
