Talk:HOWTO: Convert Ubuntu to Diskless

From Developer Community

A little side note: for Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) the /etc/network/interfaces needs a little tweak, in order *not* to have the NetworkManager fiddle with the interface since it's already configured (see also bug #111227 : "NFS-root support indirectly broken in Feisty")


# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface, commented out for NFS root
#auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet manual
----------

works for me now...
