Add Os - iscsi

Open natoleet opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Not sure if this is a bug or just a limitation but...

...When using iscsi instead of the SDcard as the installation location, the 'Network Settings' button is missing from the Add Os window. This makes it harder to add a custom OS as you are unable to add a custom repository from CIFS or HTTP.

Problem is that if someone changes the network settings such as IP-address, the iSCSI connection will break, and there is an issue with reconnecting.

Haven't had time to look into that, so disabling the button was the quickest workaround.
