[opensuse-autoinstall] installation source not at root of DVD?
by Jochen Schaefer 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

Hi, I have a question regarding installation from CD/DVD. Is it possible to have the installation source at a DVD where the product files do not exist at the root of the DVD? My DVD layout looks like that: /boot, /grub, /inst/media/sles/10/sp2/i586/CD1, /inst/media/oes2/sp1/i586/CD1 I'm using grubs eltorito stage to make the image bootable - that works fine with network installation sources. The content of SLES10-SP2 DVD is on the media below /inst/media/sles/10/sp2/i586/CD1 I tried install=cd:/hdc path=/dev/hdc/inst/media/sles/... install=cd:/dev/hdc patch=/dev/hdc/inst/media/sles/... ... But it didn't work. I'm wondering if it is possible to accomplish this task at all. /dev/hdc as path argument seems wrong for me cause /dev/hdc is a block device which should be mounted. I'm also thinking about mounting the DVD via exec parameter at bootloader prompt and point the installation source to the mountpoint. But at first I would like to hear your advises.

[opensuse-autoinstall] Creating profiles with static IP addresses
by Peter Niessen 03 Mar '09

Hello list, I'm trying to generate a profile (control file) from a template. The item to be modified is the IP address. I tried to model after the xslt script mentioned on http://www.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/CreateProfile.XSLT.html but since we're dealing with a config:type="list" in case of <interfaces>, I get only one <interface> upon subsequent applying of the xslt. Does someone have an example xslt-file which achieves the desired?
