Hi *, i am already running a Redhat KickStart server, but im not very familiar with SuSE AutoYast or ALICE. Actually i got a problem with the Bootmanagement i guess. The system start up read the info file but can't find a source to install from. That is what i have already done: - I set up a NFS service and i am exporting SuSE 8.0 FTP Version (mirroring ftp.suse.com). The NFS Server is called "linuxsrv". - I created a bootdisk (default) and added the "info" file and the "autoinst.xml" to the root directory of the floppy. - I created a modules disk (default). Then i replaced the initrd with a new one (including 3c90x.o and aic7xxx.o). - The autoinst.xml file was created with the yast2 mod and checked with tidy. That is what happen: - After loading the kernel and modules from the disk the setup stops with a message that says that the is no valid installation source. I double check the nfs-server and it is possible to do a nfs-installtion on the target system with the manual setup from the bootdisk. Here is my info file ... i found example info-files with different syntax in the www and i am not sure if this one is correct. I already tried to use "<variable>: <value>" and "<variable>=<value>". <code> IP: 192.168.0.100 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 Server: 192.168.0.244 Serverdir: /home/ftp/pub/LinuxInstall/suse8.0_i386 Nameserver: 192.168.0.10 Netdevice: eth0 insmod aic7xxx insmod 3c90x autoyast=default install=nfs://192.168.0.244/home/ftp/pub/LinuxInstall/suse8.0_i386 </code> Would be nice if you could help me ... if you need further info please drop me a line (mailto:guettler@fokus.gmd.de).
