Description Olaf Hering 2008-04-28 16:41:31 UTC

root on nfs requires network all the time.
'init 0' does ifdown eth0 during rcnetwork stop.

boettger.suse.de:/data/inst/nfs/factory/ is and installation from current factory.

Comment 1 Christian Zoz 2008-04-29 09:06:35 UTC

rtfm ;)

In ifcfg(5) you will find STARTMODE=nfsroot

BTW: new maintainer of sysconfig is Marius Tomaschewski

Comment 2 Olaf Hering 2008-04-29 09:33:19 UTC

its not invalid.
yast2 partition has now a nfs button.
sp2 is likely broken as well.

Comment 3 Christian Zoz 2008-05-02 15:42:17 UTC

Why is sysconfig broken, just because yast2 has any button. Do you want that YaST should automatically sets STARTMODE=nfsroot?

Olaf, I don't understand what you want.

Comment 4 Olaf Hering 2008-05-03 20:47:19 UTC

Christian, the yast2 partitioner has now the option to install onto a nfsserver.
I think it makes sense that such an installation should work out of the box. If changing some sysconfig variable is required to achieve that network is up all the time, someone (not the admin) has to change the variable to the correct value.

Comment 5 Christian Zoz 2008-05-05 07:58:58 UTC

So why don't you ask the YaST experts?

All we need on network setup side is:
   STARTMODE=nfsroot
in the right interface configuration file.

Comment 6 Arvin Schnell 2008-05-08 10:04:51 UTC

According to bug #176804 this should already be handled in
yast2-network.

Comment 7 Michal Zugec 2008-05-09 07:47:30 UTC

YaST logs from 1.st stage of installation, please. And what's STARTMODE value?

Comment 8 Olaf Hering 2008-05-09 09:09:28 UTC

they have startmode onboot

Comment 10 Michal Zugec 2008-05-13 11:21:58 UTC

Accepting bug
re comment #6: yast tested only for iscsi, not nfs (iscsi is disk, nfs is only filesystem - not included in "hwinfo --disk" output). So I need to add this functionality

Comment 11 Michal Zugec 2008-05-13 11:55:04 UTC

fixed in yast2-2.16.66

Comment 12 Michal Zugec 2008-05-22 08:43:08 UTC

broken in beta3+

Comment 13 Michal Zugec 2008-05-22 08:57:32 UTC

fixed in yast2-2.16.69
