In the autoyast documentation I found another way. It says, that when booting from cdrom (but installing from the Network) the installer can be advised by the file:// URL to search the autoinst.xml file on the suse CD (I guess that file://autoinst.xml would describe the file autoinst.xml in the toplevel directory of the CD containing the suse directory?). So what I would have to do is to copy the first SuSE CD with a modified Eltorito boot-image where I add the additional autoyast=file://autoinst.xml directive into the grub configuration. Should this work or am I missing something?
you can put the profile on the CD and autoyast will find it via file:///my.xml You can boot from CD and install via nfs and if you put the my.xml into the root of the installation source on the nfs server, autoyast=file:///my.xml should find the file too. And it's "file:///" not "file://" -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de
