--- Begin Message ---Package: live-boot Version: 2.0.15-1 The man page of live-boot says this regarding the ip=... parameter: ip=[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NETMASK]:[HOST- NAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF] [,[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NET- MASK]:[HOSTNAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF]] Let you specify the name(s) and the options of the interface(s) that should be configured at boot time. Do not specify this if you want to use dhcp (default). It will be changed in a future release to mimick official kernel boot param specification (e.g. ip=10.0.0.1::10.0.0.254:255.255.255.0::eth0,:::::eth1:dhcp). (Taken from http://manpages.debian.net/cgi-bin/man.cgi?locale=en&query=live-boot&manpath=Debian+6.0+squeeze) However, live-bottom/23networking parses the parameter as follows. [...] if [ -z "${NETBOOT}" -a -n "${STATICIP}" -a "${STATICIP}" != "frommedia" ] then parsed=$(echo "${STATICIP}" | sed -e 's/,/ /g') for ifline in ${parsed} do ifname="$(echo ${ifline} | cut -f1 -d ':')" ifaddress="$(echo ${ifline} | cut -f2 -d ':')" ifnetmask="$(echo ${ifline} | cut -f3 -d ':')" ifgateway="$(echo ${ifline} | cut -f4 -d ':')" [...] E.g., the interface name, not the IP adress is the first parameter; the others are in different positions as well. The line in my grub.cfg (used with FAI 3.4.7) thus reads linux /boot/vmlinuz boot=live FAI_ACTION=install FAI_FLAGS="verbose,sshd" ip=eth0:192.168.1.10:255.255.255.0:192.168.1.1 hostname=server which works for me. Is this a bug in the documentation, or in the actual behavior? (Furthermore, the last sentence of the man page's description does not make sense to me, considering that the format documented seems to be consistent with the kernel boot parameter specification. If this a problem with my understanding of English, I apologize.)
