Hi,
We dont run DHCP in our environment where I build our servers, is it
required to get a first IP address to hit my kickstart server running on
my xandros debian laptop? Just been a couple years since I last did some
kickstart builds and I dont have system-config-kickstart running on a
machine here in my home lab.
I can turn on DHCP on my linux laptop perhaps, but just wanted to check
in here before I over-engineer something.
I have a line in the kickstart file that gives the machine it's network
addressing like this (fictional IPs):
network --device eth0 --bootproto *static* --*ip* 192.168.25.4 --netmask
255.255.255.0 --gateway 192.168.25.1 --nameserver
192.168.25.2,192.168.25.3 --hostname myhost4.mydomain.com
it's right under these: (#question, it does go at the end, in the
position I have it in right?)

completely since I dont run X?
