The signature-handling override for additional packages as specified in the autoyast doco section 4.5.4 doesn't work for me. I specify all four items (accept_unsigned_file, accept_file_without_checksum, accept_verification_failed, and accept_unknown_gpg_key) as "true" in my autoinst.xml in hope of avoiding the confirmation prompt. The confirmation prompt still appears.
Anyone?
That's a bug. Will be fixed in RC3 of SLES10
And what about SuSE Linux 10.1 (which we are using at the moment)?
BTW, there's another annoying popup that shows up for some of our machines, stating something like "These disks have a raid controller that isn't guaranteed to work...". Any chance of getting rid of that one in a supposedly unattended installation (i.e. autoyast) as opposed to manual installation?
It's just that we've figured out all we need now, especially with the latest (10.1) release, we have dynamic detection of disks and disk types (IDE/(S)ATA/SCSI) using the modified.xml feature, dynamic partitioning on all (heterogenous) machine types, addon rpm's in a nice separated (and therefore more maintainable) way thanks to the latest add_on_products feature. All that's preventing us from having truly unattended installations is the two popups mentioned above, both need confirmation, i.e. human intervention. Not a showstopper, but definitely annoying when everything else works just great.
And here's another one: on occasion (depending on software selections) I get a popup in the middle of the installation saying something like "The diskspace is nearly full, do you really want to continue?". The installation then stops awaiting user input. Closer investigation of the partitions shows that there's plenty of space. R/Lars
