I installed dsl-1.0 from dsl-1.0.iso on hard disk. After install
I changed the hostname (hostname newname) and configured static -ipaddressetc. (via stsyem-net setup->netcardconfig).

After a boot both the new hostname and static-ipaddress
info disapprears( changes to hostname box and ip address
obtained from DHCP server). Is there a way to keep the information acroos a reboot of system?

add it to /opt/bootlocal.sh

ifconfig eth0 ip netmask ip
route add default, etc.
echo "ip.of.nameserver.here" > /etc/resolv.conf
hostname hostname.you.want.com

the hostname is being changed by the knoppix/dsl bootup scripts.

bootlocal is called from the rc init scripts, afterwards.

enjoy dsl.

I want to configure static ip and your answer helps me a lot  but one thing I still don't understand is the following line:
route add default, etc.

I really don't know wat to put there can you be more specific with an example ?

Thanx in advantage !!

This is what I've configured in the bootlocal.sh
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
but it don't work. I still got an flexible ip instead of the static 10.0.0.202
Can somebody help me with this problem?
