The installer currently allows re-configuring interfaces and deletes the hostname.if before doing it. I think the most useful solution is to check for "the other" configuration for that interface and remove it as well when reconfiguring. > (Brushing aside the issue that fe:e1:b[ab]:dX:XX:XX addresses > are usually random so the hostname.lladdr scheme won't work for > them anyway..) This is true, but testing stuff in vmm is so handy!
