Comments/Problems:
I'm using Mac failovers on a virtual machine where i'm trying to
install Debian Squeze.
The problem is when I try to specify my IP adress and such, I have a
gateway unreachable error.
In fact I would like tu use the following configuration:
Ip address of the virtual machine is named IPVM, the gateway is IPGT
So the machine would have the following parameters:
IP address: IPVM
Broadcast address: IPVM
Netmask: 255.255.25.255
Gateway: IPGT
A /etc/network/interfaces would look like this:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address IPVM
netmask 255.255.255.255
broadcast IPVM
post-up route add IPGT dev eth0
post-up route add default gw IPGT
post-down route del IPGT dev eth0
post-down route del default gw IPGT
But I can't configure my network like this using the installer.
