Autodetect network interfaces during boot and configure them for DHCP
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The rationale for this is that we are likely to require multiple
|
||
|
|
network interfaces for use cases such as baremetal and there is no way
|
||
|
|
to know ahead of time which one is which, so we will simply run a
|
||
|
|
DHCP client on all interfaces (except lo) that are visible on the first
|
||
|
|
boot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The script /usr/local/sbin/generate-interfaces-file.sh will be called
|
||
|
|
early in each boot and will scan available network interfaces and
|
||
|
|
ensure they are all present in /etc/network/interfaces.

Note that this element is only expected to be useful on Debian-derived
|
||
|
|
distributions, currently.
