Hi, I'm trying to build an appliance using SL5 but am unable to get an internet connection. I'm using boxgrinder-build-0.1.0.2 in the i686 v1.7 meta-appliance. I've tried this with a variety of different appl settings and have used libvirt, virtualbox, and ec2 for running the images. A simple example appl is this:
name: sl-5
summary: Test
os:
name: sl
version: 5
password: pass
packages:
- @core
hardware:
cpus: 1
memory: 1024
partitions:
"/":
size: 10
type: ext4
What I find is that I get the following error in SL5 when /etc/init.d/network starts:
Bringing up interface eth0: RTNeTLINK answers: No such device
The network always seems to work fine with centos if I can get it to build (the above appl with centos replacing sl fails after "GFS: list_partitions = []" leading to "TypeError: can't convert nil into String" for example). The only suggestion I could find on google was to add "NOZEROCONF=yes" to /etc/sysconfig/network. That does eliminate the above error but no network connection is established if I do this.
Is this a problem that others have seen?
