Reading a piece on adding Qeth to sles10 it talks about 2 pieces
one in /etc/sysconfig/network/
and one in /etc/sysconfig/hardware/

So after the initial install I find
/etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-bus-ccw-0.0.1d00
and
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-02:00:85:00:00:09

Is it odd these are not named the same?

inst-sys:~ # cat
/mnt/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-02\:00\:85\:00\:00\:09
BOOTPROTO="static"
LLADDR="02-00-85-00-00-09"
UNIQUE=""
STARTMODE="onboot"
IPADDR="199.44.167.84"
NETMASK="255.255.255.128"
NETWORK="199.44.167.0"
BROADCAST="199.44.167.127"
_nm_name='hwcfg-bus-ccw-0.0.1d00'


inst-sys:~ # cat /mnt/etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-bus-ccw-0.0.1d00
STARTMODE='auto'
MODULE=''
MODULE_OPTIONS=''
