Kick Start Questions and Answers
Q1: I configured my kickstart(ks.cfg) network configuration as static IP. But it reverts to dhcp after installiation. Why?
network --bootproto static --device=eth0 --gateway 192.168.17.2 --ip 192.168.17.38 --nameserver 192.168.17.2,8.8.8.8 --netmask=255.255.255.0 --activate
network --hostname vagrant.tbag.local
Answer
Do not forget to add device parameter in your kick start file and it has to be proper device name. If you configure wrong device name it reverts to dhcp after installation. eth0 is wrong device name according to my device configuration. After proper device configuration(here is ens33) it works.
network --bootproto static --device=ens33 --gateway 192.168.17.2 --ip 192.168.17.38 --nameserver 192.168.17.2,8.8.8.8 --netmask=255.255.255.0 --activate
network --hostname vagrant.tbag.local
Q2: When Kickstart starts dracut gives me an error like “no space has left on disk….”
