[opensuse-autoinstall] Do a reboot after paritioning
Hi, is there a way to do a reboot after partioning and/or after formating the disks (without too much hacking)? I would like to utilize such feature to press autoyast in our process and on the other side take advantage of the hardware recognition etc of autoyast.

no, there is no easy way but why do you want to reboot? What exactly do you want to achieve? -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug now playing Advanced Electronics Vol. 5 - Kloq - Kloq Music -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

in our management tool one can assign different tasks (such as partitioning, installing, etc) to a client. To perform a full installation one selects all predefined tasks. That's the way we install SuSE Linux now. But the GUI lets you select only one task, e.g. formating. Our users expected now that formating is the only action performed on the client.
ah. Interesting :) You can always do partitioning in a pre-script with fdisk if that is an option for you. After that, you can reboot if you want. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug now playing Advanced Electronics Vol. 5 - Schwefelgelb - Bella Donna -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

ah. Interesting :) jepp ;). You can select a setup (e.g. SuSE Linux, some system from Redmond, or maybe Solaris if I find some time), select properties like IP stuff, partitioning, basic software scheme, display etc and assign

What is the final reason for a reboot ? A far as i know you can configure the partition without a reboot. cu Hajo

Hi,

What is the final reason for a reboot ? A far as i know you can configure the partition without a reboot. technicaly you are right. No reason to reboot after partitioning. But I integrate SuSE with autoyast into a toolsuite with a given process model. To fit this model best it would be nice to break an autoyast run into its steps and perform a reboot (on user request) after each step.
