Hi,

After cobbler pxe installing Fedora 9, I noticed that there was no:
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0

File generated.

In my kickstart file I had the following line:
network --device eth0 --bootproto static --ip $ip_address - --netmask 255.255.255.0 --gateway 192.168.1.1 --nameserver 192.168.1.1 --hostname $hostname

So I assumed that that would get translated into a configuration file on the 
newly installed system.

I also tried creating one manually, and did did:
ifdown eth0
ifup /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0

But the settings are ignored.  Instead the router provides an IP address at 
from the very beginning of it's address pool, which is 192.168.1.100 (And the 
static configured IP is 192.168.1.2).

So it seems like the host has been configured to always obtain a DHCP lease.  
Ideally the ifcfg-eth0 file would be generated and be used after the first 
reboot...any ideas on how to make this happen?

Thanks,
- Ole
