Hi, This obsolete code was removed a while back (2004/02/20). I have no idea how this made it into 9.1. According to the log files, this should not be in 9.1. What exactly are you trying to install? 9.1 GA or any betas? What version of yast2-installation do you have with your 9.1? Anas werbung@kuhnle.net wrote:
Hi,
I am trying to do a network install with SuSE 9.1 on a headless (and keyboardless) machine. After inital booting and ssh login, yast displays the following error message:
unicode_start skipped on /dev/pts/0 No keyboard detected. Trying to connect via serial interface /dev/ttyS0. On your terminal computer start the user interface with y2base "serial(115200):/dev/ttyS0" qt --auto-fonts or y2base "serial(115200):/dev/ttyS1" qt --auto-fonts or start the YaST2 menu by typing "yast2" and select YaST2/Remote Install
This is because yast calls hwinfo, which sets "Keyboard: 0" in /etc/install.inf, causing YaST2 to fail at the following section:
if [ ! "$update" -a "$Keyboard" = "0" -a ! "$Braille" -a "$NOTISERIES" != 0 -a "$NOTHVCCONSOLE" != 0 -a "$HOSTTYPE" != "s390" -a "$HOSTTYPE" != "s390x" -a -z "$Console" ] ; then log "no keyboard?" echo "No keyboard detected. Trying to connect via serial interface /dev/ttyS0." ... fi
Is there any workaround/fix? Regards, Jochen
