Hello list,

autoinstall on LPAR is now working, but we still have one problem:

We have to activate and select the target-DASD (direct access storage
device) manually by yast, so a "complete without user input" install is
only possible after selecting, activating and formating the dasd.
The autoinst.xml-file will be loadad AFTER the DASD-configuration by yast,
so there might be a way with a parameter into the parmfile.

The parameter "DASD_Parameter=dasd=0.0.5f07" or "DASD_Parameter=dasd=5f07"
didn't change anything. 5f07 is the ID of the DASD.
Are there any other secret parameters for the parmfile to make them
activate the DASD ? In all threads found in the internet this parameter is
written like "DASD_Parameter=dasd=100-103" where I don't understand the
"100-103". Any hint ? Maybe I only use a wrong ID or syntax.

The next thing is the installed SSH-Server - There is no password for root
set, the SSH-Access isn't possible until I logged in by HMC and set it by
hand.
I have already tried following lines in the autoinst.xml:

 <users config:type="list">
       <user>
         <username>root</username>
         <user_password>XXXXX</user_password>
         <encrypted config:type="boolean">false</encrypted>
      </user>
    </users>

But that didn't solve the problem.

Thank you in advance !

Stefan
