Hello All, I am installing NLD9 via autoyast, which I've been using for a long time, and does work very well. However, I have a new RPM to add, but the only catch is that the rpm will not install unless the "--force" option is used, if I were to install the rpm by hand with the "--force" option, the rpm will install. I did edit the control file accordingly and added the new rpm. After the install is finshed, the new rpm is listed when I run "rpm -qa", however, the file is not present. I was curious if there was a way to use the "--force" option during the autoyast install process for the software section. If not, I could copy the files needed onto the target machine during the autoyast install. This leads me to my next question. If I need to copy a binary file to a specific directory on the target machine, what is the best way to to accomplish this task during the autoyast install? As a test, I wrote a script in the pre-script section of the control file to "cp -p binary_file /usr/sbin", which didn't work. Then I used the absolute path of the binary_file, "cp -p /local/SuSE/i386/nld9/binary_file /usr/sbin/binary_file", which didn't work either. **Background** The new rpm that I am referring to is the new tg3 NIC driver which I created an rpm from a source rpm. The old tg3 driver will not work with the new workstations. Help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. -- Rick King -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
