| Abhijit | hello | 08:46 |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit | can anyone please try to solve this bug? | 08:46 |
| Abhijit | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/855921 | 08:46 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 855921 in netcfg (Ubuntu Oneiric) "does not honor netcfg/choose_interface in preseed" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 08:46 |
| Abhijit | or assign to someone who can solve it? | 08:47 |
| maxb | That bug is not a bug, it's expected behaviour | 09:15 |
| maxb | Logic dictates that the contents of a network loaded preseed cannot affect questions asked before the preseed file is downloaded | 09:16 |
| Abhijit | maxb, just ask the questios "after" the preseed is loaded? | 09:19 |
| maxb | Erm, no. :-). It needs to choose the interface to enable the network to download the preseed! | 09:22 |
| Abhijit | maxb, and how does Centos works with same configuration then, out of the box , without any issues? | 09:22 |
| Abhijit | why centos does not force me to select eth0 before kickstart is loaded? | 09:23 |
| Abhijit | if centos can do it why can not ubuntu? | 09:23 |
| Abhijit | maxb, ^ | 09:23 |
| maxb | Ubuntu can | 09:25 |
| Abhijit | how? | 09:25 |
| Abhijit | as we can see from that launchpad bug report, Ubuntu can not? | 09:25 |
| maxb | You probably just need to turn on the reelated option in your pxelinux config so the pxelinux passes a BOOTIF parameter on the kernel command line | 09:26 |
| Abhijit | okey. will check on bootif more. | 09:26 |
| maxb | My guess would be Centos makes a different design decision and assumes the first interface if it has no better information | 09:27 |
| Abhijit | summary is Centos is better! | 09:28 |
| Abhijit | your argument is invalid. | 09:28 |
| maxb | Better for some, worse for others | 09:31 |
| Abhijit | invalid. | 09:32 |
| maxb | People doing bulk installsvought to be able to set up the PXE environmwnt to include the information. People doing single installs will either make one more keypress or save a lot of time wondering why it does not work | 09:33 |
| maxb | however you now appear to be trolling, so I shall stop talking | 09:34 |
| brainwash | please change the importance of bug 1041176 to wishlist | 11:32 |
