@import in XML file?
by Daniel 11 Feb '05

11 Feb '05

Hi there, I´m quite sure I have read this but I can´t remember where ;-) Is it possible to import some sections into an autoyast XML file from another XML file? Something like this: my.xml: -------------------------------------- <software> <addons config:type="list"> <addon>LAMP2</addon> <addon>Min</addon> </addons> <base>Minimal</base> <packages config:type="list"> @import http://10.0.0.2/packages.xml </packages> </software> -------------------------------------- whith packages.xml: -------------------------------------- <package>mc</package> <package>vsftpd</package> -------------------------------------- What about the correct syntax? Thanks for your help! Daniel

final configuration brings down eth0
by Brian Corriveau 10 Feb '05

10 Feb '05

For some reason my eth0 is being brought down at the end of configuration during the execution of /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/YaST2. Before that script has run eth0 is up, and afterwards it is down. I have taken all network configuration out of my xml control file, and no ifcfg-eth file appears in my /etc/ sysconfig/network directory so I don't know why it stops working. After rebooting eth0 works fine as our kernel looks after eth0 itself. thanks for you help, brian

firstboot scripts
by Anthony Staples 09 Feb '05

Anas, Well, it seems to be working. I ran a complete autoinstall rather than just testing on an already loaded machine, and my init scripts ran with firstboot as expected. So, sorry for the false alarm.
