[opensuse-autoinstall] TR: opensuse 11 autoyast no IP address after reboot (and other autoyast questions)

Hello,
                We have an autoyast file we created and when we boot with
the DVD and type in the appropriate NFS paths to it and the installation
source (NFS as well) the system installs and then reboots before doing some
other tasks. However after that reboot the machine doesn’t get an IP address
and we have to stop installation there.

We know the dhcp server is working, otherwise it wouldn’t proceed to install
in the first place. At first our autoyast didn’t have a network configured
but even after we added one it does the same.

Any hints on what could be wrong?

We’re also having problem with the NIS authentication and root password.
After starting the autoyast we make it stop at the configuration screen and
it shows that root password isn’t set and the authentication doesn’t seem to
be NIS. We configured those with yast but it just doesn’t seem to be used.

I read that in opensuse 10.3 we could make a manual installation and ask it
to create an autoyast file, is it still possible to do that with opensuse
11? I didn’t find the option anywhere and most searches I do return results
for 10.3.

Should i include the autoyast configuration file in here? I tried in my
previous message but it got rejected.

Thanks for the help.
