Hi,

i am using pxe boot with autoinstall and a hostname specific tgz file
in the sets to deploy many similar Firewalls.
i tell the installer how to configure at least one nic, to download
the sets. i use dhcp for that.
after that everything works as expected until the install is done and
machine restarts.

in my custom site57-fw1.tgz is a /etc/hostname.vio0. it says "up".
i was wondering why in the filesystem of fw1 /etc/hostname.vio0 says "dhcp".
i can only think the installer filling the file, after my site.tgz
gets extracted.
i am not absolutely sure if that's whats happening but if that's the
case i'm not sure if that is intended behavior.


i could of course add another nic just for pxe booting or put
something in the install.site script, but maybe there is a better
solution.

Jan
