Hello, I am using the Grub floppy to initiate system boot via bootp & tftpd. It is able to locate and load the kernel, but when it gets to the SuSE Installation Program it tries to locate the infofile and then moves on to a screen where it says "Please make sure that CD number 1 is in your drive!". I have supplied a location for the installation source, but it doesn't seem to be finding it. I am specifying the locations of everything in the menu.lst on the Grub disk, as my DHCP server setup must remain plain vanilla if possible. Here is what I have for the menu.lst:
color white/blue black/light-gray default 0 timeout 8 framebuffer 1
title autoinstall-bootp bootp tftpserver 192.168.122.160 from the grub manual: Caution: This command exists only for backward compatibility. Use ifconfig (see ifconfig) instead.
root (nd) kernel (nd)/linux install=(nd)/suse80 serverdir=(nd)/suse80 autoyast=(nd)/autoinst.xml
I am not sure whether this is possible. install needs a valid URI, i,e, install=nfs://192.168.1.1/suse80 Same applies to autoyast. Anas
initrd (nd)/initrd
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Amanda
