[FEATURE]: Static IP address #855

Closed Cubeman333 closed 2 months ago

Cubeman333 commented 2 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

it is annoying to set a static IP address on a Pi before first boot.

Describe the solution you would like to see implemented

It would be nice if you could set a static IP address directly in the Imager.

Describe alternatives you've considered

It would be way harder to implement a easy method of setting a static IP in the dhcp.conf, because you cant acess this partition on windows.

Additional context

I dont know how difficult it is to do this with the different network interfaces, but it would be a nice addition to the Imager.

Version

1.8.5 (Default)
