Workaround suggestion: In case that for the installation the OS repository is sufficient i would suggest to add additional packages during the stage 2 install or even via a init script.

Hi,
I want to upgrade a couple of HPC nodes. All working in a private subnet. To get access to some additional repositories I need a proxy config. But when I add the proxy and proxyport statement at the pxe server for the (test) node, the autoyast file is not found. Without the proxy statements the autoyast file is found, but many packages are not found ;(
I've tested the proxy using wget and everything is working from the cli. Any idea what's wrong or howto debug ?
LABEL install KERNEL kernel APPEND initrd=initrd showopts install=nfs://192.168.1.100/Net/Groups/Services/LNX_FTP/INSTALL/sles11SP1/x86_64/ autoyast=http://192.168.1.100/sysinst/autoyast/node25 textmode=1 netdevice=eth0 dhcp=1 proxy=192.168.1.100 proxyport=3128
-> no autoyast found
APPEND initrd=initrd showopts install=nfs://192.168.1.100/Net/Groups/Services/LNX_FTP/INSTALL/sles11SP1/x86_64/ autoyast=http://192.168.1.100/sysinst/autoyast/node25 textmode=1 netdevice=eth0 dhcp=1
-> autoyast found, no external sources ...
