Now I'm stuck at second level . Now I would like to define root password in my "autoconf.xml" itself. I have run into two problems how do I put my "package.sel" (software list) file inside autoyast. Also I'm using dhcp to give all my boxes IP . Now the problem is the dummy autoconf.xml file has eth0-id hardwired <bootproto>dhcp</bootproto> <device>eth-id-00:0d:60:14:a0:44</device> and I realise that If I try use net config on any new machines It might not work Any pointers to fix this . cheers yogesh -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-help@suse.com
