[opensuse-autoinstall] SLES11-SP2 partition creation error
Hi, I'm trying to install SLES11-SP2 onto a VM with an autoinst script that worked with SLES11-SP1. I'm getting an error box at the start of the autoinst process that says "Error configuring partitions. Try again." I've got 1 harddrive of 60GB which I'm trying to partition into 3 sections. "/" "swap" and "/var/local/" The partitions section of my autoinst xml is <partitioning config:type='list'> <drive> <device>/dev/sda</device> <initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize> <partitions config:type='list'> <partition> <filesystem config:type='symbol'>ext3</filesystem> <format config:type='boolean'>true</format> <mount>/</mount> <mountby config:type='symbol'>id</mountby> <fstopt>defaults,errors=remount-ro,barrier=0</fstopt> <create config:type='boolean'>false</create> <partition_nr config:type='integer'>1</partition_nr> </partition> <partition> <filesystem config:type='symbol'>swap</filesystem> <format config:type='boolean'>true</format> <mount>swap</mount> <mountby config:type='symbol'>id</mountby> <create config:type='boolean'>false</create> <partition_nr config:type='integer'>2</partition_nr> <partition_id config:type='integer'>130</partition_id> </partition> <partition> <filesystem config:type='symbol'>ext3</filesystem> <format config:type='boolean'>true</format> <mount>/var/local</mount> <mountby config:type='symbol'>id</mountby> <fstopt>defaults,errors=remount-ro,barrier=0</fstopt> <create config:type='boolean'>false</create> <partition_nr config:type='integer'>3</partition_nr> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> </partitioning> I've attached the logs as a tar ball.

The partitions section of my autoinst xml is
you don't create any partiton but reuse existing ones. Is that correct for you machine? That means you need three partitions on the harddisk The first will be used for "/", the second for "swap" and the third for "/var/local" by autoyast. Autoyast will not create partitions with your profile. If you don't have those partitions, the installation will fail -- ciao, Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer Home: http://www.suse.de/~ug - Blog: http://suse.gansert.net listening to: "Sanctuary" by mind.in.a.box -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org
