[19:57] <pmatulis> how can i force/override the nameserver used in the installer so i can influence name resolution on the target?  the local dhcp server is not in my control.  or maybe i can just add entries to /etc/hosts ?
[19:58] <pmatulis> or just re-write resolv.conf?
[19:59] <pmatulis> but i need to first access my pressed file that requires name resolution
[19:59] <pmatulis> going by IP doesn't seem to work
[20:23] <CarlFK> pmatulis: IP should work
[20:24] <pmatulis> CarlFK: yeah, i got that to work but i'm just not used to lighttpd.  it's weird
[20:24] <pmatulis> CarlFK: then i did an early_command to re-write the target resolv.conf and it's working
[20:25] <CarlFK> gross ;)
[20:26] <pmatulis> heh heh
[20:26] <CarlFK> I think it would be better to add entries to /etc/hosts - which is different from /target/etc/hosts, so it would not be part of the install
[20:27] <CarlFK> but meh.. dns has its uses
[20:29] <pmatulis> well i do want resolv.conf to keep the custom value.  let's see what i'll end up with
[20:35] <CarlFK> I think you will want to feed that into CONF=/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections  https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/var/www/lc/late.sh#L177
[20:35] <CarlFK> nm clobbers resolv.conf
[20:37] <pmatulis> no n-m , server only
[20:37] <pmatulis> and resolv.conf popped back
[20:38] <pmatulis> how do i keep it at the customer value?  OR keep /etc/hosts at a custom value?
[20:39] <CarlFK> did you modify /target/etc/resolve.conf ?in late_command?
[20:40] <pmatulis> no
[20:40] <CarlFK> in case it isn't clear: the installer mounts / under /target and does chroot stuff to set it up
[20:40] <pmatulis> i guess i'll do that
[20:40] <pmatulis> ok, good to know
