[Solved] Change Static IP Address Using Same ISO

[feist]

Hello,

I would like to change the static IP address defined previously to a new static IP address without going through the kiosk setup wizard again due to many customizations that I would have to redo.

I can see that the /etc/rc.d/rc.M file found in 003-settings.xzm initializes the NIC:

# Initialize the networking hardware:
for x in `ls /sys/class/net | egrep -v 'sip|lo'`; do
dhcpcd -L -t 0 $x >/dev/null 2>&1 &
done

I assume the static IP address is defined in this file. The question is, in which XZM file can I find /sys/class/net? I've been searching, but I'm having a hard time locating this file.

I'm sorry if the following is not what you seek for, but I hope you may find it useful.

And general approach for Gentoo (base of Kiosk Edition)

Thanks, but I didn't find the static IP address listed in the files referenced. Just need to know in where Porteus Kiosk stores its static IP address information.

@feist

please edit 003-settings.xzm/etc/rc.d/rc.M and hash out '/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1' string.
now insert your own network details under it.

Thank you for the information. I ended up updating to 3.4.0 and love the new features.
