[sles-beta] Confused about Network-Manager

[Bienwald, Martin]

Hi,

You could always add a “pre-script” to autoyast that determines the name of the interface(s) in the installation system and then changes the autoyast file on the fly. But that’s kind of a dirty hack.

Regards,
     Martin Bienwald

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.

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?
