Description Flags
Unable to reach the server... from firstboot with networking disabled none

Description Devan Goodwin 2013-10-31 15:08:50 UTC 
Description of problem:

With a disabled network card, subscription-manager still prompts to register and reports that it cannot reach the server.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):



How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have network card disabled. In my cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcgf-eth0 had ONBOOT turned off.
2. Boot up into firstboot.

Actual results:

Prompted to register, told the server is not correctly set if I try.

Expected results:

Skip registration as old firstboot did.
