If you put on commandline ip= <a href="http://123.123.123.123">123.123.123.123</a> netmask=<a href="http://234.234.234.234">234.234.234.234</a> hostname=host123 On %post you could do: HOST=`cat /proc/cmdline|tr " " "\n"|grep hostname|cut -d "=" -f 2` And when creating the custom /etc/sysconfig/network, fill in the value from $HOST Regards Pablo _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list <a href="mailto:Kickstart-list@redhat.com">Kickstart-list@redhat.com</a> <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list</a> </blockquote></div>
