I do not see an option of importing/exporting of package selection in SLES10.
that feature does not exist in SLES10 but AFAIK it will be implemented.
I manually installed a SLES10 machine with all the packages we want. and then created a autoyast.xml file. Now, What I want is if I do an autoyast install of SLES10 then it should ask me all the install questions but all the packages should be selected from the autoyast.xml file I created .
so all you want from autoyast is a pre-selection of the packages but nothing else? You can not achieve exactly that with autoyast, becaues of the partitioning that autoyast always needs to be pre-configured. You can get close to it by turning of the second stage of autoyast and set confirm to true (both in the general section in the documentation). Then you still need a partitioning setup in the autoyast profile and your software selection + the general section with confirm and second_stage -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug
