Hi,
I'm using Cobbler 2.2.3, and have to resort to buildiso.
Now, my problem is that ISO want's my machines to do DHCP, but I don't
want them to do that. I want pure static networking during installation
process.
Is that possible and how?
I've tried to set following in my kickstart file:
network --bootproto=static --device=eth0 --onboot=on --noipv6
--ip=192.168.1.244 --netmask=255.255.255.0 --gateway=192.168.1.1
--nameserver=192.168.1.1
but with no luck. It seems that buildiso configures networking dhcp,
because network config gets done before it even pulls kickstart from
Cobbler server.
How should I go about this one? Is there a way to force static
configuration of network interface for installation?

One way to do it is when the cobbler menu comes up and you select your
kickstart file, hit the TAB key to edit the parameters and add this at the
end of the line: ip=192.168.1.244 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.1.1
dns=192.168.1.1 ksdevice=eth0

I went through this last week. Unless there's a better way, I added the network lines
within the --kopts option for each system.

In my opinion, if a system has a static interface defined that is also
listed as the management interface, these options should be automatically
added to the append line.

We use buildiso with static addressing only, so it's very well supported by
Cobbler.
What target distro are we talking about here?
What does your isolinux.cfg look like?
You might need to set the management_interface field on a given NIC.

If you use the systems command line option for buildiso, all the necessary network info
gets put into the resulting image.
This requires you to put the network info into the cobbler system object, of course.
I do this regularly as I am in an environment without any access to the (Windows only)
DHCP server.

Yeah, this is how cobbler should behave.
Thank you!
