Hello,
I am trying to configure AutoYast profile for installing Leap 42.3.
I deploy my XML profile file by HTTP as the following ifcfg=eth*=dhcp
autoyast=http://servername/path/to/profile.xml
I see that the profile is downloaded and Automatic Installation proceeds.
The issue is that there is single one repository configured in software
manager: openSUSE installation DVD. How could I specify in autoyast to
configure usual openSUSE network repositories (oss, update-oss, non-oss,
update-non-oss) before installation is performed?
We use something like the following[0]:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE profile>
<profile xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns"
xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns">

  <add-on>
    
      <listentry>
        false
        <![CDATA[http://<chooseyourmirror>/suse/install/42.3/]]>
        <name>openSUSE 42.3 install</name>
        <product>suse_install</product>
        /
      </listentry>
      <listentry>
        false
        <![CDATA[http://<chooseyourmirror>/suse/update/42.3/]]>
        <name>openSUSE 42.3 updates</name>

The example is taken from an internal partial mirror, and IIRC the
paths (after "<chooseyourmirror>" ) are slightly different on
download.opensuse.org and other official mirrors:
- install should be "/distribution/leap/42.3/repo/oss/"
- update should be "/suse/update/42.3/"
However, since I haven't tested with this setup, I wanted to posted
the tested-and-working example as-is. (c;
Thanks. This is very similar to what I invented. But is there a way to
avoid manual specification?
I mean, when manual system installation is performed, then the user
doesn't have to know network repos URLs. They are hardcoded somewhere
inside YaST configuration.
