This is probably a newbie question, but the scenario is that I'm trying to install a ppc LPAR partition on iSeries with SLES9 (rc2). I pass the install kernel parms for autoyast, install, and networking. The install proceeds to read the autoyast control file, do some more setup which flies by, and then pops the text installer out to the root "Main menu". No error condition was given -- it just popped out and the same thing happens if I repeat the process by choosing option 4 to start system installation. How do I look at the install log at this point? I don't know how to exit
the
main menu and get to the ramdisk, etc. Thanks.
One of the text consoles has a shell prompt. Try <Ctrl>+<Alt>-
, where ? stands for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
There is only one console on the iSeries platform. So, I took option 1, option 4, option 9==> "Enable or Disable SSH Mode". And I was prompted for an SSH password during the next install attempt, however, now when I try to ssh into the kernel, I get "Connection refused". I can ping it fine.
