[00:00] <CarlFK> those 2 files that were wget from that honken URL above..
[00:01] <CarlFK> netcfg/wireless_wep=  hmm... I wonder why that is there ;)
[00:01] <CarlFK> oh yeah.. hostname...
[00:01] <CarlFK> hostname=
[00:02] <CarlFK> this line in dhcp config:
[00:02] <CarlFK> https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/etc/dhcp/dhcpd-hostname.conf
[00:02] <CarlFK> option host-name=concat("dhcp", binary-to-ascii(10, 8, "-", suffix(leased-address,1) ) ) ;
[00:03] <CarlFK> that just makes up a "random" hostname that I can type
[00:03] <CarlFK> like dhcp123
[00:04] <CarlFK> or you can get the node's mac and set things up here:
[00:04] <CarlFK> https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/etc/dhcp/dhcpd-macs.conf
[00:04] <CarlFK> host cw1b{ 	hardware ethernet 00:90:27:1C:C4:AC ;	option host-name "cw1b" ;	fixed-address 192.168.1.177 ;
[00:05] <CarlFK> the dhcp server will send hostname=cw1b and the debian installer will use it so I don't have to type it in.
[00:06] <CarlFK> the rest of it is about the same as the preseed install you were already doing
[00:06] <CarlFK> or trying to do :)
[00:08] <legogris_> CarlFK: Alll right, it doesn't sound too intimidating I guess :) I'll try it out tomorrow and maybe I can hit you up if I run into somehting?
[00:08] <CarlFK> sure
[00:08] <CarlFK> I am here most of the time
[00:09] <legogris_> Cool, thanks :)
[00:11] <CarlFK> I use my local one a few times a month.  I put all that stuff on git about 2 years ago?  and tested it enough that I could deploy it.. and then deployed it in like 2011, and again in 2012.
[00:12] <CarlFK> and a few weeks ago I organized my repo and moved the dir down a level.  should just work, right?
[00:13] <CarlFK> whatever. I think it is a good starting point.  and hopefully doesn't burn up too much time
