Greetings, is it possible to skip steps of the installation procedure, like partitioning and software installation? I'm trying to set up an autoyast profile (for an installation CD) that basically just asks a few (network) values in the initial stage, patches them back into the bootloader section of the profile and then just installs the bootloader with these values, skipping everything else. After reboot, the machine uses the boot parameters to fetch the "real" installation profile from a server and does a "normal" installation. (After installation, the machines will be managed by bcfg2.) The reason I'm trying to do this is twofold: First, I have to give those discs out to users and would like to never change them, if possible. Thus, the split-up between "bootstrap" and the real, changeable, profile on the network. Second, it is unlikely these users will have DHCP available, and I don't want them having to type endless boot parameters like hostip=1.2.3.4 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=1.2.3.1 install=http://network-repo/... autoyast=http://network-source/... So, is this possible with autoyast, or do I have to resort to putting more complexity on the CD, (changing things after installation with bcfg2) and possibly sending out new discs for profile errors/enhancements and new openSUSE releases? thanks, 686f6c6d -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
