[Erp5-users] LiveCD: How-to make network configuration persistent / config.xml

[david atlan (PHENO)]

Dear Kevin and SB,

I tried
ifconfig eth0 up
dhclient eth0
ping nexedi.com

and it worked!

I did find a config.xml (see content at the end) but not in:
/mnt/erp5_cd/config.xml
it was in /root/config.xml

Should I edit this xml and copy it to /mnt/erp5_cd ?

Kind regards

David
