AW: [suse-autoinstall] auto install with service pack

Hallo Anas, hallo list! I am trying to install sles8 with service pack 2 in an automated way. The kernel and the inird from the sp2-CD (chosen because of hardware support) are booted via pxe. When checking the software selection I always get a long list of dependency errors beginning with "aaa_skel not available..." and so on. Please help and tell me how I can do better! I suppose it has nothing to do with the /UnitedLinux-i386-1 directory, but maybe I am wrong... My nfs-exported directory for linuxrc looks like this: |--boot | `--loader |--content (file from sles8) |--media.1 (from sles8) |--sles8 | |--UnitedLinux | |--boot | |--docu | |--dosutils | |--media.1 | |--media.2 | |--media.3 | |--suse | `--yast |--sp2 | |--UnitedLinux | |--boot | |--docu | |--i386 | |--images | |--linux | `--media.1 `--yast |--ul |--instorder (file) `--order (file) I011-52:/autoinst/suse/sles8sp2/yast # cat order /sles8 /sles8 /sp2 /sp2 I011-52:/autoinst/suse/sles8sp2/yast # cat instorder # I want to prefer sp2 packages if possible /sp2 /sp2 /sles8 /sles8 Thanks a lot, Martin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Anas Nashif [mailto:nashif@suse.de] Gesendet am: Dienstag, 15.

For example, my nfs export for SLES8 i386 with SP2 looks like this: |-- SP2 | |-- UnitedLinux | |-- boot | |-- docu | |-- i386 | |-- images | |-- linux | `-- media.1 |-- SuSE-Linux-SLES-i386-8 | `-- CD1 | |-- boot | |-- docu | |-- media.1 | |-- suse | `-- yast |-- UnitedLinux-i386-1 | |-- CD1 | | |-- UnitedLinux | | |-- boot | | |-- docu | | |-- dosutils | | `-- media.1 | `-- CD2 | |-- UnitedLinux | |-- boot | `-- media.2 |-- boot | `-- loader |-- media.1 `-- yast `-- ul in the directory yast, there are 2 files: order and instorder This is the content which references the location of the root of every source. (where the media.1 directory is available) # cat yast/instorder /UnitedLinux-i386-1/CD1 /UnitedLinux-i386-1/CD1 /SP2 /SP2 /SuSE-Linux-SLES-i386-8/CD1 /UnitedLinux-i386-1/CD1 avicenna:/work/CDs/sles8-i386 # cat yast/order /SP2 /SP2 /SuSE-Linux-SLES-i386-8/CD1 /SuSE-Linux-SLES-i386-8/CD1 /UnitedLinux-i386-1/CD1 /UnitedLinux-i386-1/CD1 (delimiter is tab) more details can be found at http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/8.1/html/advanced.html#AEN1251 Hope that helps...

Avoid onlineupdate at instaling with autoyast
by Daniel Spannbauer 23 Oct '24

Hello, I defined a xml for installing Leap 15.5 with autoyast. There are a lot of packages defined, alls with fixed versions. But it looks like an automatic update is made during the installation. I don't have defined any opensuse repos. The cause seems to lie in the package openSUSE-release, which creates the repos. Any idea how to avoid the update?
