How to disable interfaces in Jumpstart



Hi,


When we jumpstart a server, it always check the link status of all
interfaces,
like this:

[...]
Attempting to configure interface bge3...
Skipped interface bge3
Attempting to configure interface bge2...
Skipped interface bge2
Attempting to configure interface bge1...
Skipped interface bge1
Attempting to configure interface bge0...
Configured interface bge0
[...]

The only interface that is connected and that should be configured is bge0 as
mentionned in sysidcfg file.

I'm wondering if there's a way to tell Jumpstart not to check all network
interfaces but bge0 to speed up the installation. Because, if we have a
server with 8 network interfaces, it takes time... I don't think I can do it
in sysidcfg because it's read after that...


Thanks!
