Hi, I've been using /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/YaST2.firstboot from a VNC session after cloning SLES9 images. I build a master SLES9 image, apply service and any generic packages, then I shutdown the image and clone. When I bring up a clone, it has the original hostname and IP address of the master. These get changed when I use firstboot from a VNC session. A subsequent reboot, and I'm ready to do another clone.
I also use /usr/lib.YaST2/bin/YaST2.firstboot2 after I reboot the clone, but I haven't verified if it is really needed. Using firstboot lets me use a supported mechanism for changing all the values for a clone, without the guesswork.
