I'm trying to get autoyast working with OpenSUSE-12.3. The actual OS installation seems to work fine, but after the reboot (when it does a bunch of post-install stuff), its consistently hanging at: Preparing System for Automatic Instlallation Install required packages Checking for packages required for runlevel ---> 33% Or more accurately, it just stalls. The system isn't hung, I can switch between virtual consoles, but the actual installation never progresses at all. Load is 0.00. I started poking around in the newest log in /var/log/Yast2, and I see the following at the bottom of y2log: ########## 2013-03-06 05:33:47 <1> dhcp-172-16-170-244(3533) [Interpreter]

My autoyast.xml has the following: ######### <configure> <runlevel> <default>3</default> </runlevel> ######### Is this no longer supported? The last version of the documentation seems to suggest that its still valid: http://users.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/configuration.html#CreateProfile.Serv... As a side note, is autoyast still being actively maintained? All of the links on Uwe's website ( http://users.suse.com/~ug/ ) don't have any references to 12.3, and the OpenSUSE Yast Autoinstall wiki page is now gone ( http://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Autoinstallation ). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org
