Re: [suse-autoinstall] autoyast fails on partitioning on Dell Precision 670
Thanks for the rules help. I've been studying the online documentation and was very confused about the directory structure needed for the rules.xml. Your rules.xml example worked flawlessly. I'd recommend adding your example as it is written to the documentation.
I've now progressed to getting the system imaged and booting (Whoo Hoo!) Now to get my post install script running again (I yanked it to simplify debugging the partitioning issues).
Next question, is there a setting to allow installing without the "Licensing" prompt, or does the timeout automaticly assume acceptance?

Hey, I think I figured it out (somewhat). I added /dev/sda to the partitioning section and it now blows past that and installs. Now I need to figure out how to use rules, as we have IDE, SCSI, and SATA systems. SATA and SCSI will work with this config, but IDE needs /dev/hda. Any suggestions? --------------------------------- Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page

the example was posted by me some weeks ago and I've added a similar example to the documentation for SUSE Linux 10 already. I modified it a little bit, because actually there is an autodetection of the harddisk device, so the example with the rule for device detection is not so good for the documentation. You should not need it in most cases. -- 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
