Hi Kurt,

I suggest you do two things:

1- in your info file change :
AutoYaST:ftp://autoinst.xml
to
AutoYaST:ftp://XX.XX.XX.XX/autoinst.xml

where XX.XX.XX.XX stands for the ftp server ip address.


2- You can either check dierctly by adding 
AutoYaST=ftp://XX.XX.XX.XX/autoinst.xml  in your current command line .

if your command line is; for example 

kernel (nd)/linux install=nfs://192.168.0.59/home/suse82/ ip=192.168.0.230 
netmask=255.255.255.0

change it to :

kernel (nd)/linux autoyast=ftp://XX.XX.XX.XX/autoinst.xml 
install=nfs://192.168.0.59/home/suse82/ ip=192.168.0.230 
netmask=255.255.255.0

where XX.XX.XX.XX stands for the ftp server ip address.


It works on my system.

Best regards,

Damien.

Subject:
[suse-autoinstall] Placing autoinst.xml onto the nfs-server? 

 
Hi all,

normally autoinst.xml resides on the floppy.

In the autoyast docu I found the description of the info file. There is 
an entry which seems to describe the location of autoinst.xml file.

I tried to put a line in "info" (which resides in the root on the floppy):

AutoYaST:ftp://autoinst.xml

A ftp deamon (vsftpd) is running on the server which allows an anonymous 
login. autoinst.xml will be presented in the ftp ano-root directory. I 
assume that the same IP-Adress will be used as for the nfs-Server 
because there is no field in the info file which allows me to provide a 
separate ftp IP-Adresss.

When yast2 tried to locate the autoinst.xml file I get an interactive 
dialog which offers me to choose several.

I can type in what I want (nfs, tftp) autoinst.xml will not be found. 
nfs is running ok, otherwise yast2 will not go so far.

Who can help me please?

Regards, Kurt
