Dear List,

Having recently resurrected my info file using the kernel parameter
info=file:///info I get prompted (by linuxrc?) to enter a VNC password.
The info file on the initrd has this:

install: ...
autoyast: ...
loghost: ....
vnc: 1
vncpassword: thepassword

And in addition the kernel command line includes:

append initrd=initrd splash=silent showopts
install=... autoyast= ... vnc=1
vncpassword=thepassword info=file:///info

(without the line-breaks of course.)

Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?
Hi Ian,

I guess it's a new rule with 10.2. I can reproduce this, but only if the VNC password I chose is less than 8 characters. I don't recall this password checking before.

HTH,

Lee
