After you have your basic appliance, then you need to upload your compiled driver module to susestudio.
Just for interest, I was following your procedure but I got lost here.
Where do you get a compiled driver from, if you need the system you're trying to install to compile it? Or are you assuming the use of some other computer that already has the 'target' installed on it except that it has different disk hardware?
Cheers, Dave
The latter:
Jörg said he had compiled the driver. I assume that meant he had a machine which he did a normal openSUSE install to and from which he compiled the driver he needed for his custom install.
I built the driver on the target system that I had booted from a normal disk. This way I could try it out easily. However I could compile the driver anywhere. What remains for a regular install (I need to do this on ~20 machines without a regular disk) is to let the installer load it from somewhere in order to see disks. Using the studio sounds like overkill. Does anybody know if http://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/hvogel/Update-Media-HOWTO/index.html is still valid? It only talks about 9.0 and 9.1 which is rather seasoned. Cheers, Joerg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
