So I have gotten a little further now.... but still no luck.....
I am using the following for my isolinux.cfg entry
# Autoyast Installation label autoyast kernel linux append initrd=initrd ramdisk_size=65536 splash=silent showopts netsetup=1 install=http://169.10.63.215/x86sp3/ autoyast=http://169.10.63.215 /xml/server.xml
The netsetup=1 ends up prompting for IP, netmask, default gateway, and nameserver...... but then the install fails. It seems to still be trying to use DHCP. If I use DHCP it will work. Even if I use the exact same IP, netmask, gw, ns that I was trying to use in the static config.
Something like hostip=1.2.3.4/24 gateway=5.6.7.8 install=... should work. If not, have a look at the log on console 3. There is definitely no 'fallback' to use dhcp if static network config fails. Steffen
