[opensuse-autoinstall] Responding to errors during the autoyast install of OES2

Hi,

I've created an autoyast profile to install an OES2 server into our
existing eDirectory tree that works fine.

However, when performing a manual server install we occasionally
experience problems during the eDirectory section whereby an LDAP error
message is displayed, followed by the choice of F1 to re-enter the
eDirectory details, F2 to retry or Abort to call it a day.

This error now also occasionally appears when using Autoyast, but
whereas during a manual install it's possible to get around this by
doing some stuff from the console and then hitting F2, when using
Autoyast the F1/F2 keys don't seem to be responded to correctly (F1 the
install just continues regardless, F2 doesn't appear to retry), so it's
impossible to complete the install successfully.

The error that we get during the eDirectory install is not going to be
easily resolved, so I was therefore wondering if there was anything that
could be done to make Autoyast either respond correctly to the F1/F2
keys, or to stop the automatic nature of the install, so that the
eDirectory problems can be resolved and the installation completed
manually?

Many thanks for any assistance you can provide.

David Froggatt
