[sles-beta] Confused about Network-Manager

[Christoph Schumacher]

Hey,

This seems to be basically a good idea.

But: how this work in combination with autoyast ? 

How to determine the name of the interface without even looking at the 
machine ?
How to install a new machine with a single, central autoyast file which 
only asks simple questions (ip,nm,gw,hostname), so someone can install the 
box very easily ?
It'd be to elaborate placement,type,rule for the interface to evaluate at 
installation for a load of machines.

At last: how to disable the stuff at installation if there's no other way 
arround ?

The device names are "the new standard". They are based on physical 
attributes of the device so should not change if additional interfaces are 
added, systems rebooted etc.

some additional background here (may not be the best link,sorry)

The Network Configuration looks strange.  In default installation (bare 
metal) the wicked network-manager comes up. The interfaces were named like 
“enp11s0f0” and first try with bonding via YaST failed. Any hints for 
using/configuration wicked in SLES available?
