I tried to use a explicit package list in autoinst.xml, because I wanted it to be usable in opensuse 10.1 and SLES10/ Opensuse10.2. So i commented out addons and base clauses (is that legal ?):
that's okay for SLES10 but opensuse needs the <base>
Then I run into Problems:
1. I learned the hard way that you MUST add exactly this to the kernel command line: instmode=cd autoyast=file:///autoinst.xml This should be documented better.

2. Now start of Problem:
-The dvd booted fine, fired up yast you "started autoinstall". - While looking for "catalogs" or such, a huge list of missing packages is displayed. Clicking away that warning gets a "no catalogs on medium ... " error.
have you tried to turn off the signature checks? http://www.suse.de/~ug/autoyast_doc/configuration.html#CreateProfile.General -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug now playing Diary Of Dreams - Tears Of Laughter
