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

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

The forceboot option is set to true.
Kind regards
