linuxrc - netdevice=<hwaddress>
by John Willis 18 Dec '12

18 Dec '12

Does anyone know if any of the SLES releases 9 or 10 support passing the linuxrc option netdevice=<hardware mac address> ? I noticed Red Hat has had this for sometime and it seems totally missing in SuSE which seems really odd. I'm still scratching my head if we really are still passing only by kernel interface name. I read in the change log for linuxrc-1.8.6-3 a change that "sounds" like this feature. * Mon Mar 14 2005 - snwint(a)suse.de - s390: fix segfault in net_list_s390_devs() - extra root image was sometimes not used - allow netdevices to be specified by hwaddress But it looks like linuxrc-1.8.6-3 is only available in SuSE Professional 9.3. "any" commentary would be sincerely appreciated the feature also seems to be fairly minor since any delimiter seperating the octets in the hwaddr string could be used to identify the difference between an interface name and interface hw address if i could figure out a generic method of overriding the linuxrc with a custom script and daisy chain it back into linuxrc after setting up the interface name, I would.. and have a slight idea on how to do that.. but i'd rather find out i'm just missing something and the feature is already there Thanks!

[opensuse-autoinstall] Adding packages to profile triggers error message
by Isaac Hailperin 07 Nov '10

07 Nov '10

Hi, I try to install sles 11 via autoyast. I did an installation from dvd, and pulled an autoyast profile. This profile works, and can be installed via pxe. Now I want to add the following packages: findutils-locate, dhcp-server, bind, apache2, vsftpd, nfs-kernel-server I do this via the gui. I have also tried to do it with an editor, as the gui messed up profiles in sles10sp2. In both cases, after the first reboot, I get the errormessage: "The package resolver run failed. Please check your software section in the aut" [oyast profile] (last part invisible, I guess it should be the software section in my autoyast profile :-)) This a real problem, as I have to confirm this message, thus it stops the autoinstall process. After confirming, the autoinstall process continues. Right bevor I can log in, I get "Could not update ICEauthority file /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthority" I confirm, and get: "There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/GConf/2/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256)" I confirm, and can log in. Theses messages are presistend after reboot. Its annoying, but not a stopper like the first problem. Why is this? Can I avoid this? Isaac -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-autoinstall] Location for image installation with autoyast
by Leonardo L. P. da Mata 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

This is another test that i'm doing, i'd like to use this feature: <software> <image> <script_location>http://10.10.0.162/image.sh</script_location> <run_kickoff config:type="boolean">true</run_kickoff> </image> </software> http://ugansert.blogspot.com/2009/03/imagine-autoyast.html But i'd like to store both the script and the image that will be used in the installation on the media DVD, the script_location tag may have device://<cdrom_device>/image.sh parameter?? How do i identify what's my dvdrom drive inside these scripts? Thanks -- Leonardo Luiz Padovani da Mata barroca(a)gmail.com "May the force be with you, always" "Nerd Pride... eu tenho.

[opensuse-autoinstall] Classes do not work in 11.1 autoyast installation
by mwani＠fkf.mpg.de 06 Oct '09

06 Oct '09

Hi, I want to use classes in my autoyast installation. With the 'autoyast' parameter I'm loading the xml-file: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE profile> <profile xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns"> <classes config:type="list"> <class> <class_name>default</class_name> <configuration>software.xml</configuration> </class> <class> <class_name>laptop</class_name> <configuration>partitions.xml</configuration> </class> </classes> </profile> I'm booting the client via PXE boot. I can see in the log file of the http server, that the client fetches the xml file. But in contrast the client does not even try to load the class files. I can not see an obvious error in the y2log file. With 10.3 that procedure worked that way. With 11.1 it has broken for me. Any hints are appreciated. thanks, Michael Wanitschek -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-autoinstall] Install all packages via autoyast.
by Ajay Mulwani 22 Aug '09

22 Aug '09

Hi, What is the syntax in autoinst.xml to install ALL packages of the media (sles10 and sles11). In RedHat Linux "@Everything" directive in ks.cfg does this job. Is there something similar available?

[opensuse-autoinstall] merging of <package> doesn't work
by Frank Steiner 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Hi, I'm adding two profiles in rules.xml, both contain <packages> and <remove-packages> entries (and addon produtcs). I'm adding the second profile as: <rule> ... <result> <profile>profiles/sled-only.xml</profile> <continue config:type="boolean">true</continue> <dont_merge config:type="list"> <element>listentry</element> <element>package</element> </dont_merge> </result> </rule> Merging of the two add_on_product listentries works fine, but the packages are not merged. E.g. I have <packages config:type="list"> <package>sendmail</package> </packages> in the first profile and <packages config:type="list"> <package>lilo</package> </packages> in the sled-only.xml. But lilo is not added and in y2log I see only "software":$["packages":["sendmail"]] although at some point earlier I find AutoInstallRules.ycp:590 user defined dont_merge for rules found. dontmerge is ["listentry", "package"] When merge the two xml files manually according to your blog, i.e. with /usr/bin/xsltproc --novalid --param replace "'false'" --param dontmerge1 "'package'" --param with "'sled-only.xml'" --output out.xml /usr/share/autoinstall/xslt/merge.xslt lmu.xml then out.xml contains the merge: <ns1:packages config:type="list"> <package>sendmail</package><package>lilo</package> </ns1:packages> Am I doing sth. wrong? cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform.

[opensuse-autoinstall] Opensuse 11.0 image.sh fature grub problem
by Fröhlich, Marcel 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

Hello everybody, After playing around with the experimental image feature in Autoyast, I have a broken grub configuration/ installation. We are using Opensuse 11.0 to install POS systems and want to reduce the installation data to the size of a CDROM. This works perfect with the image.sh process, but after the first stage the system hang and no bootloader is installed. There was nothing to find in the mailinglist archive and the web about this problem. So I have to explain the environment to give you all a chance to help me: The used image is created with kiwi. The installed rpm's are nearly the same like in the rpm based autoyast setup. All the files from the kiwi installation are compressed as 7z archive. This is the config.xml for the kiwi image: ----------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <image schemeversion="2.4" name="suse-11.0-toolboxbased"> <description type="system"> <author>Marcel

The validation complaints but the validation is not running when autoyast is parsing and using the XML file for installation. Validation is just for users to check their XML. > Further, I was wondering if you intend to add support for automatic > cloning of LVM striped volumes. cloning of a striped LVM is on my TODO. If you clone it currently, the striping information gets lost and you have to add it by hand. > Finally, I was wondering if you plan to add support for creating such a > profile via the Autoinst UI. yes, I hope to have that on openSUSE 11.2 > At the moment, the only to do it is to manually add the tags to the XML, > is that correct? that's correct -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help(a)opensuse.org
