Hello,
I would like to use pxelinux to auto install SuSE81, but the installation comes back with an error message "Could not find SuSE Linux Installation Source. Activate manual setup program." I wonder if any of the configuration files I am using are wrong... Does not seem to find the autoinst.xml file. The NFS share is setup correctly since I was able to run other installations out of there...
Thanks in advance,
Fet
The default file pxelinux using is as follows. This file is located under pxelinux.cfg directory
---<default>---
default auto
implicit 1
timeout 60
prompt 1
# manual
label manual
kernel linux
append initrd=initrd ramdisk_size=65536 manual=1
label auto
kernel linux
append initrd=initrd load_initrd=1 insmod=e100 netdevice=eth0 ramdisk_size=65536 autoyast=nfs://192.168.1.1/KS/SuSe81/autoinst.xml
--</default--->
And the autoinst.xml file specified above has the following contents:
