Hi there, firstly wanted to say this is an amazing piece of software that has been super helpful throughout the years. Thank you for all the hard work put into supporting and maintaining this tool.
I am trying to set up an environment using clonezilla lite-server to copy an image to multiple PC's using multicast. The issue I am running into is that the machines Im using have multiple ethernet ports and when I try to start a new dhcp server using clonezilla, it defaults to eth0 when eth1 is the only connected interface. I cannot use eth0 as it is a mini ethernet port and I do not have an adapter for it.
How can I manually set the interface for dhcp? i.e set eth1 as default instead of eth0
How can I manually set the interface for multicast?
I was able to get the lite-server to successfully use the eth1 interface by using a home router as a DHCP Server and using the remote-source option of clonezilla to grab the network config and save it.
Now I've just got to figure out how to speed up my image deployments since they take ~1-2 Hours
Sure.
BTW, we have improved Clonezilla lite server. For versions >= 3.1.1-1 or 20230507-*, you can now choose which NIC to be used in the lite serve if there are multiple NICs exist.
If you have time, please give it a try and let us know the results.
