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] Feature request _ask_ for rules/class merging
by Martin Vogt 24 Nov '09

24 Nov '09

Hello, I would like to have the following feature: on the server I have some templates("rules") for different partitioning,software etc. But I like the user who installs the system to select these rules (instead of the automatic matching) During Autoyast, before the installation starts, a window should appear which shows all rules by Name and the user then clicks the rulenames which he wants to be applied to the autoyast.xml file. I know that there are "rules/classes" already and its possible to add <ask> dialogs during autoinstall. But I think its not possible to merge rules with an ask statement. regards, Martin -- 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] Wrong disk-id with hw raid
by Tomas Rosenthal 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

Hi I'm having a problem with hardware raid and autoyast. First some background, I have the following setup: * HP ProLiant DL380 * SLES11 autoinstaller - all in one DVD * HP HW raid controller to set up hardware raid 5 on the system. * The software to set up hardware raid is put into the initrd of the SLES DVD A precondition is to be able to install without network and to bundle everything in one install DVD. The autoyast installer launches a pre-install script that sets up the hardware Raid. Now the actual problem: The data in /dev/disk/by-id is read and memorized by yast before raid is set up. After the raid setup script has completed all values have changed in /dev/disk/by-id. This causes the installer to crash when it later tries to set up Grub. Yast inserts the incorrect values it remembers into /boot/grub/device.map. The installer crashes with this error in y2log_bootloader: grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 --force-lba (hd0) (hd0,0) Error 21: Selected disk does not exist grub> quit Is it possible to make the yast bootloader re-read the values from /dev/disk/by-id before setting up grub? I tried to simply override the values in the files it touches in a chroot script, but yast simply removes my changes and creates a new incorrect file in its place. I have also tried to add the raid script to /etc/init.d/ inside initrd of the SLES installer, but I can't link it like I would on debian. Googling this I found that I need to run 'insserv' but I can't chroot into the initrd in any way to do this. I'm not even sure running it in a runlevel really early would be enough, but this is an option I have not been able to test fully, so some pointers or a link on where I can find info on setting up init-scripts in suse without insserv would be greatly appreciated. Warm regards, Tomas Ps. Thanks Uwe for solving the issue '[opensuse-autoinstall] Rule based auto-installation without network' for me Ds. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-autoinstall] Problems with prompted IP values
by Eric Rothweiler 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Pardon what seems to me to be a very simple question - I have saved some system configs for use by Autoyast however I need to manually do so some editing to prompt for: Nodename IP address IP mask IP default gateway The nodename is taking just fine. My default value for the mask is falling in place but I'm not so sure a non default will take. The other IP values of address and mask are not taking, It seems to be caused by the node believing it is going to get it's IP via DHCP (that is the active method after installation completes) I've searched the official documentation as well as reading some other folks primers on Autoyast but I am missing something. Could someone look over this profile and help me find what I'm missing?

[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? Thanks, Ajay -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-autoinstall] Exporting users during installation
by Leonardo L. P. da Mata 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hello, I need to clone the installation information to be used with autoyast. there is a module called AutoinstClone that can export this information, it reads the Profile::current data and exports this information using XML::YCPToXMLFile module. This profile contains an entry for users, but this entry only contains the root user, if i create one user called "leonardo" during the installation it doesn't appear in this profile. Does anyone knows how to export the information about this initial user created during installation? i need to create this autoyast file automatic, i really need to do it during the installation process without user interference. Thank you -- Leonardo Luiz Padovani da Mata barroca(a)gmail.com "May the force be with you, always" "Nerd Pride... eu tenho.

[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] ssh hosts keys imported
by Martin Vogt 10 Aug '09

10 Aug '09

Hello list, today I wondered why after an installation I didnt get the "ssh host key changed" when slogin in a newly installed system. Does autoyast keeps the keys from a previously installed system? At least it looks like that, because the keys are some month old. Where is this configured?

Hallo, i get trouble with automatic installation. pxeboot get an ip address by dhcp server and is downloading the linux kernel and initrd. After booting the install kernel the dhcpcd failed because of deactivating the networkcard. The network module is succesfully loaded. If i do installing by dvd and typing in: install=http... and autoyast=http... everything is working well. The installloader get an Ip by dhcp server. The linux kernel and initrd are the same on dvd and in the /tftpboot folder. Please give me some hints.

[opensuse-autoinstall] running zypper in postinstall scripts
by Magyari, Miklos 05 Aug '09

05 Aug '09

hi, I try to run zypper in our postinstall scripts, but it always fail with: "System management is locked by the application with pid 5141 (y2base)." Does it mean that zypper cannot be used in autoyast postinstall by design or am I doing something wrong? thanks, Miki -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-autoinstall] Continuous reboot by autoyast/zzz_reboot
by Magyari, Miklos 05 Aug '09

05 Aug '09

hi, I'm installing SLED11 machines using autoyast and most of them are continuously rebooting after the installation is finished. As I guess, it is /etc/init.d/autoyast that executes /var/adm/autoinstall/init.d/zzz_reboot all the time. I would really appreciate any pointers on how to fix this. thanks in advance, Miki -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-autoinstall] Does autoyast run the rules process before ask?
by Stacey Murphy 04 Aug '09

04 Aug '09

Hi, I have searched everywhere and I can't find this documented clearly. When the rules processing is done by autoyast, I can supply a custom1 class based upon a shell script. I have an ask section in the autoyast profile that queires the user for the type of install to be done. Based upon that value that I store to a file on the temporary ramdisk (/mnt), I want to have the rule get the right class to merge. But the docs don't really say whether the rule is executed before or after the ask. If ask does run afterwards, how can I get a user supplied value that can be queried by the rule/calls based scripts? And the docs say thathe rules/class script can check for things like host IP and such. But how can the IP exist of the autoinstall hasn't run yet? Unless I am reading the docs incorrectly and the autoyast profile runs, then the rules are evaluated? So I could have my ask get the user's asnwer, put it in the file on the ramdisk and have rules/class sectin query the file? Thanks for any help.

[opensuse-autoinstall] all installed packages are not included in 11.1 reference profile
by Jim Faulkner 04 Aug '09

04 Aug '09

Hello, It seems that all installed packages are not included in a newly created reference profile under 11.1. For example, my initial manual installation included the packages lftp and findutils-locate, however the reference profile I created on that system did not include those packages, nor were those packages included on an autoinstalled system using that profile. Here is my y2log of the creation of the reference profile: http://zoo.cs.yale.edu/jim/y2log-gari.bz2 Here is the resulting reference profile: http://zoo.cs.yale.edu/jim/autoinstall-gari.xml.bz2 Here is the full list of packages on the system on which the reference profile was created: http://zoo.cs.yale.edu/jim/gari.package.list.sorted.bz2 Here is the full list of packages on the system autoinstalled using that profile: http://zoo.cs.yale.edu/jim/autoinstall.package.list.sorted.bz2 -- Jim Faulkner / james.faulkner(a)cs.yale.edu Systems Administrator, Linux Systems Design & Support (LSDS) Yale University Information Technology Services (ITS) =============================================================== NOTE: Yale ITS will NEVER request passwords or other personal information via email.

[opensuse-autoinstall] Export installation settings as XML during installation
by Leonardo L. P. da Mata 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

Hi, i'm doing some tests with autoyast, and it is possible to export the configuration of a system using yast2 autoyast tools-> create reference profile option. The problem is that i need to export this settings automatically and during the normal installation, is there any interface, package, modules that export the settings into xml format information (like control.xml or autoyast.xml information)?
