(devel) Added --static-interface option to Koan
Hey,
Normally, you'd need a DHCP server for installing xenpv virtuals from
Koan: the installer stage1 would send a DHCP request before it fetches
the kickstart file.
You can now run something like:
# koan -s 172.18.3.100 -v -n -y web01.gs.stone-it.local -S eth0
(-S or --static-interface)
And it will append the IP information (ksdevice=, ip=, netmask=,
gateway=) defined in the system for the given interface to the installer
kernel options.
If the interface parameter is "ethX", it will fall back to "intfX", to
allow this to be used on servers upgraded from Cobbler 1.2.x. I also
tested against a Cobbler 1.2.5 server: it works. :)
