eth0:1 in RH8 kickstart
|

| Dennis Peere 2004-03-03, 4:34 am |
| Dear all,
I would like to know if it's possible to configure a second IP address when
performing a kickstart installation.
I configured my NIC as followed :
network --device=eth0 --bootproto=static --ip=192.168.0.2 --netmask=255.255.
255.0 --gateway=192.168.0.254 --nameserver= --hostname=MYSERVER
I'd like to add a second IP (100.100.1.2) in a 255.255.0.0 subnet
I only need this second IP during the %POST section of my kickstart
installation. Once the system is rebooted I only need the first IP.
Can I add a line to the kickstart file or do I need to script it with
ifconfig.
If I need to do it with ifconfig. How can I add/remove it then ?
Can anyone help me out please ?
Regards,
Dennis

Put something like this in your %POST section:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
cat <<-EOF >/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1
DEVICE=eth0:1
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=100.100.1.2
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=100.100.1.254
EOF
ifup eth0:1
<do your stuff here>
ifdown eth0:1
rm -f /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit values as required.
Cheers!
