USB booting :: bootlocal.sh not working during USB booting.

I want to config the static IP in the USB system via giving ifconfig command in /opt/bootlocal.sh, but seems not working.
The command is as the following:

Code Sample

ifconfig eth0 ip 192.168.0.15 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.0.1
echo "nameserver actual_ip_goes_here" > /etc/resolv.conf

The whole command scripts in bootlocal.sh seems not working. Is there anthing I missed? Or is there any other way to auto add the static IP during booting?

Oh bootlocal.sh works just fine booting from usb.
I assume that you are using the backup method to save your bootlocal.sh.
For a simple test, I just did this. Try the following.

Add this line to your bootlocal.sh

touch /home/dsl/this_is_a_test

If you have not made a backup, then be sure to do that, From control panel click on backup/restore then enter sda1 then click on backup.

When completed, you should see the backup.tar.gz if you do a ls /cdrom
Then shutdown, upon reboot your backup.tar.gz will be restores and the opt.bootlocal.sh will execute and finally you should see a zero byte file
/home/dsl/this_is_a_test

Now your static ip may be another issue. However, I do set my static ip via a usb boot as well

Hi roberts,

I got the this_is_a_test file, but still have no correct static IP . The bootlocal.sh is working, the ifconfig is not working.

I can't get the correct static IP till disable the DHCP during booting. But I don't know the reason.
