A questio about autoyast harddrive installation
Hi guys,
I am using SuSE LES 9.0 and I am trying to do an autoyast installation
from a specific partition of the harddrive.
When I tried to use the same harddrive partition for a location of
autoinst.xml file in this way:
autoyast=device://hdpart/autoinst.xml it saw that the mount failed
because of the fact that the same device is already mounted.
So I used the file:///mounts/extra/ for a value of autoyast argument.
My question is : May I be sure that this will not be changed in the
future or there is another way to use the same partition which is more
clear.
Regards,
Pavlin

in general, you can be sure that nothing will change in the SLES9 line via service packs that will break compatibility to older SLES9 autoyast versions. In your special case, I don't see that the "autoyast=file://" syntax will change too soon. Of course I can't promise that the mountpoint "mounts" will exist in the future, because that's not autoyast related. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nürnberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de
Thanks. Yes. I actually meant the mounts/extra mount point. And what actually makes this mount. Regards, Pavlin Uwe Gansert wrote:
