Anaconda static network setup in RHEL6
by Lukas Zapletal 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Hello, I am trying to boot RHEL 6.x Anaconda on a system with multiple NICs. I don't know how they will be initialized, therefore I have no idea what ends up with eth0 and eth1 etc. But I know MAC address of the card I want to provision with (download the kickstart) and I have IPv4 credentials. Now, the documentation is a little bit fuzzy here. I was digging in the Anaconda codebase. But no luck: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en- US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Installation_Guide/ap-a dmin-options.html#sn-boot-options-network Anaconda never configures me the proper device and always keep asking to do manual network configuration. What is the trick here? These are the variations I tried: ks=http://myhost/my_kickstart.ks kssendmac ip=192.168.100.68 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.100.1 dns=192.168.100.1 ksdevice=52:54:00:11:86:41 ks=http://myhost/my_kickstart.ks kssendmac ip=192.168.100.68 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.100.1 dns=192.168.100.1 ifname=pr0:52:54:00:11:86:41 ksdevice=pr0 ks=http://myhost/my_kickstart.ks kssendmac ip=192.168.100.68 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.100.1 dns=192.168.100.1 ifname=pr0:52:54:00:11:86:41 ks=http://myhost/my_kickstart.ks kssendmac ip=192.168.100.68 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.100.1 dns=192.168.100.1 BOOTIF=00-52-54-00-11-86-41 I am also interested in doing the same on RHEL7 and no luck either! Tried combinations like: ... ip=192.168.100.68::192.168.100.1:255.255.255.0:::none BOOTIF=00-52-54- 00-11-86-41 ... ip=192.168.100.68::192.168.100.1:255.255.255.0::52:54:00:11:86:41:none In this case it's even worse, getting "System halted" dracut errors and it does not make it into Anaconda. Thanks for help! -- lz
