Detailed Description
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=638131
This requires ability to enable more than one network devices in loader while preserving current behaviour of kickstart network command, which means adding of new network --activate option. Also now when more devices come into play, option that allows to prevent grabbing of default route by additional (e.g. iSCSI dedicated) device is needed (--nodefroute).
Benefit to Fedora
Wider range of iSCSI installations.
Scope
anaconda: kickstart network configuration only
pykickstart
Test Plan
Configuration desired in the feature should work, new kickstart options work as expected.
Other configurations shouldn't be broken keeping the old behaviour, especially these cases:
- using iSCSI and single NIC
- more than one
networkcommands in kickstart
User Experience
No change.
Dependencies
Contingency Plan
Disabling new options. The feature is supposed to keep behaviour of existing configurations.
Documentation
New kickstart network command options.
Release Notes
Added installation case should be mentioned. Not sure about heralding of new possibility to activate more devices using kickstart in general.
