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 05:33:48 <1> dhcp-172-16-170-244(3533) [YCP] clients/inst_autopost.ycp:112 current resource: runlevel 2013-03-06 05:33:48 <1> dhcp-172-16-170-244(3533) [YCP] clients/inst_autopost.ycp:124 Importing configuration for runlevel 2013-03-06 05:33:48 <1> dhcp-172-16-170-244(3533) [YCP] clients/inst_autopost.ycp:157 Calling auto client with: $["default":"3"]
Here the runlevel is set to "3".

I guess this simply means 4 isn't supported out of 123456, which is the plain truth. I'm not sure your issue is related to the runlevel -- I got the same lines in a successfully installed 12.2 system. What does your /var/log/messages say? Are there some unexpected messages about the network?
It seems like maybe its unhappy about something related to the runlevel? My autoyast.xml has the following: ######### <configure> <runlevel> <default>3</default> </runlevel> #########
I sure don't have any "<configure>" tag in my autoyast profile. But then, I guess, neither have you :)
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...
I didn't any tests on 12.3 (including alpha, beta, rc) yet. It should be still supported, though.
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 ).
My guess is, there is currently no openSUSE maintainer for autoyast or (s)he has a more pressing workload. Best regards Robert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org
