Right now the interface name could be arbitrary, so it seems it would
only depend on the magic to set things up right in %post. Does anyone
care to take a shot at cleaning up the "post-network-system-config"
snippet on the Wiki now? We should make it account for mutliple
interfaces first, add it to %post in the default templates, and then we
can teach it about bonding once that is established.
If we're gonna do some %post magic anyway, why not add adding custom
routes on an interface as well? It would be a small effort to write the
route-<ifname> files as well.
something like this:
--interface=eth0 --gateway=10.1.1.254 --routes="10.0.0.0/24 via
10.1.1.1,10.0.2.0/24 via 10.1.1.2"
--gateway would write the default gateway (as it is now) and --routes
would add anything there to routes-eth0 (but with a newline instead of a
comma)
Just a thought. :)
