From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: I use kickstart to set up multiple FC2 machines. The machines are set up initially with DHCP, and I want to specify the correct static IP address during the firstboot session. I've set firstboot --reconfig in the kickstart file. However, when firstboot starts, I get an error in /usr/share/firstboot/modules/networking.py because the file /etc/modules.conf is missing. Shouldn't this be changed into /etc/modprobe.conf ? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firstboot-1.3.14-1.noarch.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. kickstart install 2. reboot 3. firstboot crach Additional info:
I've solved the problem by adding these three lines to the %post section of the kickstart file: cp /usr/share/firstboot/modules/networking.py /usr/share/firstboot/modules/networking.py.old sed 's/modules.conf/modprobe.conf/' </usr/share/firstboot/modules/networking.py.old >/usr/share/firstboot/modules/networking.py rm /usr/share/firstboot/modules/networking.py.old
