[opensuse-autoinstall] Rule based auto-installation without network
Hi, I'm trying to set up a rule based SLES11 installer that will perform different installations depending on hardware. A requirement is that the installer must be able to run without a network connection. I'm invoking the autoinstaller like this: autoyast=file:///profiles/rules/rules.xml install=cdrom But it doesn't work. It seems it doesn't care about my rules.xml and just launches a generic minimalistic auto-install after validating the rules.xml file. I'm reading this doc: http://www.suse.de/~ug/autoyast_doc/rulesandclass.html "The rules file is retrieved only if no specific control is supplied using the autoyast keyword. For example, if the following is used, the rules file wont be evaluated: autoyast=http://10.10.0.1/profile/test.xml" Does it mean it's impossible the way I'm trying to make it? Should I use pre-install scripts instead?

try it without the "rules.xml" at the end. Just: autoyast=file:///profiles/ it will fetch rules/rules.xml then automagically -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
