Description randux@inmail.sk 2009-01-17 18:40:01 UTC

Hello,

I've installed 7.1-RELEASE on two machines repeatedly over the past few weeks both AMD64 and i386 ports.

I noticed that when you say "no" to "Do you want to try to configure IPV6" then then the device doesn't get configured for IPV4 either. I had to edit rc.conf and add the interface. This is a problem when installing if you need to grab stuff from NFS, for example.

If you answer "yes" then the installer does start a DHCP client and configure the interface properly.

How-To-Repeat: Answer "no" when asked if you want IPV6

sysinstall has been replaced by bsdinstall in FreeBSD 9.x. Closing.
