Good thing I am clever :)

I take care of removing all those "specifics" as part of the %post of a kickstart


So in that case, you still have to run system-config-network at firstboot (or equivalent)? That seems reasonable -- you may be handing something to someone with a static IP setup, you don't know. Rethinking it, if you clear things out in %post and also feed it network details in the libvirt XML, maybe that's good enough...

Still, I'm not sure of a way to do that fully automatically and get them all unique MACs without being rather clever...

Subject: Resend: Anaconda modifying network files

I am using cobbler/koan to generate xen disk images. After a successful
install, if I mount the image I see infomation in various networking
files which denote the information about the network I built the image
on. Specifically:


/etc/hosts has the ip address and dhcp fqdn of the image when anaconda
was running.
/etc/sysconfig/network has the fgdn of the image when anaconda was running.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 has the MAC address given out
by xen.

Is there a way to configure anaconda to not mutate these files?

Thanks!
