autoyast2: rebooting
by Berge, Harry ten 02 Jun '03

02 Jun '03

Hi, I'm new to this list so forgive me if I ask for obvious thingz... I'm wondering if it's possible to *NOT* have autoyast2 reboot after the initial installation. I remember SuSE 7.3 only re-initting but 8.2 does a complete reboot. Can I prevent this? I've 'fooled around' with the reboot/forceboot flags but the behaviour is the same... Anyone a clue? > Met vriendelijke groet / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind Regards, > H.J. ten Berge Test Engineer HITT Traffic Oude Apeldoornseweg 41-45 P.O.

Updating YaST2 in installation repository
by Fermín Galán 02 Jun '03

02 Jun '03

Hello everyone, I have read in the online documentation available that bugs of the autoinstallation system (enable_3d, password in clear text, ...) can be solved updating yast2 related RPMs (yast2, autoyast2, yast2-x11, etc). I would like to know wheter the updating processes is as simple as the addition of customized packages: delete the old RPM file in the repository, copy the updated one to the same directory (noarch, i586, etc.) and runing cd <repository>/suse /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/create_package_descr to update the packet database. I'm using/installing SuSE 8.1. Thanks in advance! ------- Fermín fermin.galan(a)agora-2000.com Agora Systems, S.A.

Hi Anas, is it possible to set up grub as default bootloader with autoyast, even if ones selects lvm and/or softwareraid for sles8? In sles8 induced the selection of lvm or softwareraid to an installation of lilo. greetings Jochen -- Jochen Schäfer SuSE Linux AG Geschäftsstelle Rhein-Ruhr Marie-Curie-Straße 11-17 D-53757 St. Augustin E-Mail: jochen.schaefer(a)suse.de
