hello all,
i play with zones on T2000 S10 8/07. I create a new zone, and copy a
sysidcfg in ../etc before booting it.
Here is my sysidcfg:
system_locale=C
timezone=MET
timeserver=localhost
network_interface=PRIMARY {netmask=255.255.255.0
default_route=192.168.4.1
protocol_ipv6=no}
name_service=DNS {domain_name=moi.fr name_server=192.168.4.3}
root_password=xxxxxxxx
security_policy=NONE
terminal=vt100
nfs4_domain=dynamic

but i'm prompted to confirm the hostname, to give the dns, before it can
continue to boot.
I'm using the same sysidcfg to jumpstart real machines without this problem.
How can i find why it prompts me for hostname/dns?

thanks in advance,

gerard

Unless the zone has been configured with ip-type=exclusive the interface
configuration will be done by the global zone. So the network_interface line
should just look like:

network_interface=NONE { hostname=HOSTNAME }

BTW

TZ=MET is an old anachronism. Better use "CET". This is the official
abbreviation for the Central European Timezone.

Or you could set "timezone=Europe/Paris" (which will also result in an
CET/CEST display)
