[opensuse-autoinstall] Can't add add-on products in autoyast / opensuse 11.1
Hello again,
I created a basic xml-file for installing opensuse 11.1 and I'm
installing from DVD.
My add-on section (at the top of the xml file!?) looks like this:
<add-on>

autoyast tries to add those repositories before it starts to feed the package resolver. That makes sense, since some packages might be only available via add-on. If you do a DVD installation without network, then you should not add add-ons that require a network connection. You should add them then via script at the end of the installation ("zypper sa ..." or so).
The y2log at this time says something like "can't resolve download.opensuse.org".
right. You have no network - adding the add-on fails then
Is the add-on definition too early in this file (I didn't touch the sequence created by autoyast UI) so that it is a problem with dns?
the order of the sections in the XML file is not important for autoyast. A section on top or at the end of the profile is the same for autoyast.
Subsequent the
true commandis ignored (I put this line at the end of the <software> section).
there is a bug in the online_update client :(
Also
true true true false is not processed.
do you have a /root/.suse_register.log? Maybe there is something in there what went wrong. You dont see an online update source with "zypper ls"?
Any ideas?

That's strange, because I tell autoyast to fetch it's autoyast.xml from a (internal) webserver and it works (only when I say vnc=1, but this is another point...). So a basic network connection is availabel, but I didn't set a gateway - maybe that's the point?!

Hmm.

Im not sure, I'll check it.

I'll check this too an report. Thanks!
