Review: gen-rescue-netscript 1.0.0-1

Package Information

Descriptiongenerate a rescue system network configuration script

gen-rescue-netscript generates a shell script to configure a rescue system's network according to the current network configuration of the running system. It inspects that configuration via ip(8) --json output and emits a standalone POSIX sh script that recreates it, for use e.g. when booting a rescue image and needing to bring the same box back onto the same network without DHCP being available or wanted.

The generated script brings up a single interface, establishes static routes and writes local resolver configuration.
