Public bug reported: In previous Ubuntu versions you used to be able to start the network installation using DHCP, and then switch over to a static network configuration in your kickstart file, with a line like:
== network --bootproto=static --ip=1.2.3.4 --netmask=255.255.255.0 --gateway=1.2.3.1 --nameserver=8.8.8.8 --hostname=dhcpunit == However in Ubuntu 11.10 that does not seem to work, and it is still using DHCP after installation. ** Affects: kickseed (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879605 Title: Specifying static network configuration in kickseed no longer works To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kickseed/+bug/879605/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
