Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH installer 2/6] common: pinning: make interface name checks stricter
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2025 14:49:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251113135023.1038305-3-c.heiss@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251113135023.1038305-1-c.heiss@proxmox.com>

According to our `pve-iface` schema, names must be at least two
characters long and start with a (latin) letter.
