Hi,
thanks for the hint, this brought me to a (IMHO) good way to accomplish
this.
When using FreeBSD as domU and configuring the kernel in the domU config
file (rather than using pygrub) it's possible to append kernel
parameters, by defining them in the variable 'extras' within the domU
config
Hi,
I had a short look on google for this parameters, and from my
understanding the NFS diskless client is using the informations out of
it to set the appropriate settings on the network interface.
So no luck when supplying them as kernel parameters.
Oh and btw I'm not sure how to setup kernel
Hi,
is there a way to configure IP address and hostname on freebsd systems
via kernel command line parameters?
I have some freebsd systems in as xen domU's and it would be really
great to be able to set the ip address hostname within the
configuration file for the domU.
I'm aware that I could
Hi,
I would take a look at sysctl this system takes care of kernel
parameters. There are a few man pages that delineate what is read only.
I'm sure you are aware of setting the hostname at boot time. It seemed like
you were more curious about on the fly. I'm not familiar with xen domU's

When running diskless, the loader sets kernel variables like:
boot.netif.gateway=192.168.198.1
boot.netif.hwaddr=00:15:17:47:14:fc
