Description of problem: I boot with the following options: linux ip=9.5.250.145::9.5.250.1:255.255.255.0:sharpie.rchland.ibm.com:eth0:none nameserver=9.10.244.100 I then select to use vnc to access the graphical installer. However, anaconda tells me to connect to a different address. One that it has received via dhcp. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Very. Steps to Reproduce: 1. See above. Actual results: Anaconda should use the passed static IP address. Expected results: Additional info: [anaconda root@sharpie /]# ls -l /run/initramfs/state ls: cannot access /run/initramfs/state: No such file or directory [anaconda root@sharpie /]# ls -l /run/initramfs/tmp/net.* -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 44 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.gw -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 57 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.hostname -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 80 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.override -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 24 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.resolv.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 116 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.up -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth1.manualup -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.lo.manualup -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Apr 10 18:41 /run/initramfs/tmp/net.lo.up [anaconda root@sharpie /]# ls /run/initramfs/tmp/ifcfg/* ls: cannot access /run/initramfs/tmp/ifcfg/*: No such file or directory [anaconda root@sharpie /]# cat /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.hostname echo sharpie.rchland.ibm.com > /proc/sys/kernel/hostname [anaconda root@sharpie /]# cat /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.up ip link set eth0 up wait_for_if_up eth0 ip addr flush dev eth0 ip addr add 9.5.250.145/255.255.255.0 brd + dev eth0 [anaconda root@sharpie /]# cat /run/initramfs/tmp/net.eth0.gw ip route add default via 9.5.250.1 dev eth0 [anaconda root@sharpie /]# ifconfig eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 9.5.90.148 netmask 255.255.255.128 broadcast 9.5.90.255 ether 2a:0f:41:b7:3f:03 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 84499 bytes 6503251 (6.2 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 38 bytes 4307 (4.2 KiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 device interrupt 19 eth1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 9.5.90.177 netmask 255.255.255.128 broadcast 9.5.90.255 inet6 2002:905:150e:302:280f:41ff:feb7:3f06 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0<global> inet6 fe80::280f:41ff:feb7:3f06 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 2a:0f:41:b7:3f:06 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 83745 bytes 6692990 (6.3 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 8 bytes 1180 (1.1 KiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 device interrupt 22 lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 16436 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x10<host> loop txqueuelen 0 (Local Loopback) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0
