Sorry for the previous message it was send in a wrong subject... so again. Hello, I trie to install suse8.0 using autoyast throught the network. The steps I use are the following: 1. the server has a directory /tftpboot. 2. In this directory are the linux, initrd and syslinux.cfg files, these are extracted from the suse8.0/disks/bootdisk (copied from the CD's) file using mount -oloop. 3. In syslinux.cfg I put the following lines: ====================== default autoyast # default label autoyast kernel linux append console=ttyS0,9800 console tty initrd=initrd \ autoyast=nfs://nfs_server/tftpboot/suse80/install.xml \ install=nfs://nfs_server/tftpboot/suse80 verbose 1 ======================== 4. Next I create a netboot file using mknbi-linux (which comes from netboot package): mknbi-linux -a "linuxrc=auto rw ramdisk_size=65536" -r initrd linux netboot 5. I boot from client, it loads the netboot file and after some messages I have the following error message: ... RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM disk image starting at 0. Freeing initrd memory: 4048k freed Root-NFS: No NFS server availble, giving up ... is there a problem with the initrd file ? Can some one help me ?
