Here is the section on partitioning. I have tried varying the partitions and cannot make this work.
<partitioning config:type="list" > <drive> <device>/dev/sda</device> <partitions config:type="list" > <partition> <crypt_fs config:type="boolean" >false</crypt_fs> <crypt_key></crypt_key> <filesystem_id config:type="integer" >131</filesystem_id> <format config:type="boolean" >false</format> <mount>/boot</mount> <size>20MB</size> <type>Linux native</type> </partition> <partition> <crypt_fs config:type="boolean" >false</crypt_fs> <crypt_key></crypt_key> <filesystem_id config:type="integer" >130</filesystem_id> <format config:type="boolean" >false</format> <mount></mount> <size>300MB</size> <type>Linux swap</type> </partition> <partition> <crypt_fs config:type="boolean" >false</crypt_fs> <crypt_key></crypt_key> <filesystem_id config:type="integer" >131</filesystem_id> <format config:type="boolean" >false</format> <mount>/</mount> <size>max</size> <type>Linux native</type> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> </partitioning>
Well, it seems you are missing the most important detail here, the filesystem that should be created. You did not choose to create a filesystem and formatting is 'false'. You only created a partition, and thats it. =(Maybe i should disable the mount point comboBox if formatting is not specified). You might need to create a partition w/o formatting if you are creating a special partition, i.e. for LVM or RAID. In all other cases a filesystem is required.
Is there a more detailed description of how this should look, or how any of the entries in the autoinst.xml file should look. The AutoYast2 document section I. Profile Element Reference lists the entries, but there is not much detail.
I will look into that. Regards, Anas -- Anas Nashif <nashif@suse.com>, SuSE Linux AG Montreal (Laval), Canada Tel./Fax: +1 450 978 2382
