Slight additions to network configuration #11

Closed Kaned1as closed 5 years ago

Kaned1as commented 5 years ago

  1. Should tmfs here be tmpfs? https://github.com/neilbrown/gnubee-tools/blob/ccdfde0465c4a8f0a337055ec7268dceacd60677/initramfs/init#L79

  2. What if I use systemd-networkd and don't need /etc/network/interfaces? How can I prevent them from being mounted? https://github.com/neilbrown/gnubee-tools/blob/ccdfde0465c4a8f0a337055ec7268dceacd60677/initramfs/init#L43

Should tmfs here be tmpfs? That is certainly what I meant to type, but it doesn't really matter. You can put any string at all there and it will have the same effect.

What if I use systemd-networkd

I don't know anything about systemd-network. It would still need some sort of configuration, and I hope it would get the configuration from the standand place - /etc/network/interfaces. If you, or anyone, works out what changes would be useful, I'll happily accept them, but I don't have time to dig into these issues at present.

Debian currently uses network-manager instead of systemd-networkd. I'd recommend doing what upstream is doing.

That being said, setting up systemd-networkd isn't hard: https://wiki.debian.org/SystemdNetworkd

I wouldn't want to try to debug it though.

If I come up with systemd-networkd configuration that can be integrated into initramfs I'll create PR. Thanks for fixing the typo.
