The management interface boolean is used by buildiso to decide what nic is the ksdevice/netdevice (they are added as kopts), instead of making guesses it's now up to the user to define the interface to use for installing. It can also be used for other stuff in your kickstarts/autoyast/preseed files, e.g. for setting up a firewall policy for management traffic (ssh/puppet/snmp/etc). Any suggestions/improvements are welcome! -- Grtz, Jörgen Maas _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
