Need help wth kickstart setup of network devices. ifcfg files being renamed to .bak
by Howard Wilkinson
Can anybody point me to the code that is renaming the ifcfg-<device>
files I am creating in the post install part of kickstart. They end up
as ifcfg<device>.bak and get replaced by DHCP entries. As we run our
servers with bonded interfaces I need to get these device to come up as
slaves to the bond device which has a static address.
I know this happens after the %post section has run and I am fairly sure
it happens after the reboot and once the rc.sysinit hhas run for the
first time. I do not have firstboot installed or any of the
system-config-* packages so I have eliminated them from the path. I am
fairly sure it is not anaconda itself that is doing this, but cannot for
the life of me see where it could be happening.
I am running a slightly extended FC6 install with minimal packages.

New device drivers don't see beyond 15 partitions in fc7
by Clyde E. Kunkel
Hello,
With the change from traditional /dev/hd* type device nodes to /dev/sd*
type nodes, I see that the highest partition number that can be used is
15. Will this change so that higher numbers will be available? I do
have a system that has a drive with almost 30 small partitions used in a
research effort and the number of partitions has not been an issue thru fc6.

Rawhide status
by Mike Chambers
Is rawhide status sort of broken due to kernel, dev stuff (hdx to sdx)
or whatever? Or is that part fixed and even installable or whatever
now?
Hvaen't tried it in a week or longer, and ended up having to reinstall
FC6+updates to get back a usable system.

The cdrecord debate
by David Nielsen
Shortly before FC6 was released we backed down to an older version of
cdrecord because of conflicts between the GPL and the CDDL licenses.
Debian also at that point forked cdrecord into cdrkit and other
alternatives like libburn exist as well. There seemed at that point to
be a concensus that we should stick to cdrecord for FC6 and talk about
replacing it for FC7 since we were already far long into the FC6 cycle.
Don't change horses in the middle of a stream and all that.
So what is the plan here are we going to stick with an old version of
cdrecord or will we be looking for alternatives?
