Dear all, I want to install a SLES9 SP2 or SP3 Linux with autoyast on a z/VM guest without any manual intervention. Unfortunately the installation is always stopping after stage 1 (package installation, preparing bootloader, ...) with an unclear error message on my 3270. I have to re-IPL my system manually to continue with stage 2 (post installation, suse-config etc.). That's output to 3270: [...] umount: /y2update: not mounted umount: /var/adm/mount: not mounted Feb 15 19:48:19 suse sshd¬322|: Received signal 15; terminating. [...] bash: no job control in this shell SuSE Instsys boeid120:/ # [...] My parmfile looks like: ramdisk_size=65536 root=/dev/ram1 ro init=/linuxrc dasd=150,151 TERM=dumb AUTOYAST=http://<IP>/autoinst.xml AUTOINSTALL=yes IP_INTERFACE=qeth IP_HOST=<hostname> IP_ADDR=x.x.x.x IP_NETMASK=x.x.x.x IP_BROADCAST=x.x.x.x IP_GATEWAY=x.x.x.x IP_DNS=x.x.x.x IP_SEARCH=x.x.x.x READ_DEVNO=7000 WRITE_DEVNO=7001 DATA_DEVNO=7002 PORTNAME=xxxxxx INST_INFO=ftp INST_IP_ADDR=x.x.x.x INST_IP_DIR=/SLES/sles9_s390_sp3 FTPUSER=<user> FTPPASSWORD=<pw> INST_SCREEN=VNC VNC_PASSWORD=<pw> IP_MTU=1492 INST_PASSWORD=<pw> The forceboot option is set to true.
