Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->jkh iThis appears to be a sysinstall-related PR Responsible Changed From-To: jkh->eric Because it beats having me do it. Responsible Changed From-To: jkh->eric Because Eric touched it last. Responsible Changed From-To: eric->freebsd-qa assign idle sysinstall bugs to freebsd-qa, as suggested by murray State Changed From-To: open->feedback This bug was recently fixed. Can you please try FreeBSD 4.4 and verify that the problem no longer exists? Thanks. I will do so once I have test hosts again. The hosts in question are going through testing with other OS's at the moment, as The Company decides what OS to ultimately use for some future projects. Thanks. Theoretically people fixed this bug after I reported it. :-) On Tue, 5 Feb 2002, Clark Shishido wrote: > > making a custom build off of RELENG_4_5 > and using a custom sysinstall config, > I'm not prompted for IPv6 or DHCP > when I have the following set: > > noConfirm=YES > noWarn=YES > nonInteractive=YES > > And of course I'm not promted when I use: > noConfirm=YES > noWarn=YES > nonInteractive=YES > tryDHCP=NO > tryRTSOL=NO > > only tested with cdrom and ftp installs. > > --clark > State Changed From-To: feedback->closed This bug was fixed prior to FreeBSD 4.4.

I am working on automating via PXE network installs of FreeBSD for lab machines. I was able to automate nearly everything - except the IPv6 prompt wouldn't go away. I finally found the tryRTSOL variable - setting it to "NO" did not have any effect. Looking at the code, it looks like YES does the right thing, NO forces a *user prompt*, and "HELLNO" does what *I* want (don't try, don't ask, just do IPv4). Fix: Set tryRTSOL to anything but YES or NO. In my case, HELLNO. How-To-Repeat: Install with a custom install.cfg, where tryRTSOL=YES is defined
