Networking :: hd-install and network?

did you do an ifconfig -a

Perhaps putting that in a file such as /etc/network.kickstart

Quote

#!/bin/sh

ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.202 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default gw 10.0.0.138
echo 10.0.0.202 > /etc/resolv.conf
hostname linuxpdm
ifconfig eth0 up

And then in the autostart script add

Quote

# Making ethernet static
echo "Kickstarting network"
/etc/network.kickstart &

Make sure you chmod it to 700

Give that a shot..it should work ok for you

Also,

You should add the word

nodhcp

to the boot command line or to the "append" line in your bootloader (IE: LILO or GRUB)

and then rerun the bootloader program.

I added nodhcp right here (in /etc/lilo.conf)
# append=""
99 append="hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi h dh=scsi nodhcp apm=power-off nomce noapic"
Is this the correct way and place?

You say something about a autostart-script. Sorry, but where can I find this file? Because I like the kickstart-method

Yes, this is the correct place.

Don't forget to:

sudo lilo -v

after you save your file in order to activate your changes.

This works for me great, thanx !!!
