• On SuSE vm:
  • Install only: Base Module
  • System Role: Minimal
  • Configure vm with static ip address… as Yast is not fully configure you can do it modifying file /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 and DNS on /etc/sysconfig/network/config

cat  /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0
BOOTPROTO='static'
IPADDR='192.168.122.132'
NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
GATEWAY='192.168.122.1'
STARTMODE='auto'
ZONE=public
cat /etc/sysconfig/network/config|grep 192
NETCONFIG_DNS_STATIC_SERVERS="192.168.122.78"
systemctl restart network
