I ran into a snag with using autoyast to get printers preconfigured during installation. I took an already-configured SuSE 10 machine, set up the printers as desired, and ran the Autoinstallation portion of YaST to get a reference configuration file. I chopped out the part where the printers were defined and grafted it into an already existing autoyast file. Xmllint showed no problems with the syntax, but no printers were defined on the computer that I autoinstalled. Is there a problem with my methods? I can supply the chunk of the autoyast file that had to do with printing, if that helps.

did you use that profile to install a 10.0 too?

actually it should work like you did it. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de
Yep. I used that profile. The install worked as advertised except it seemed to ignore the printer definitions. On Mar 28, 2006, at 7:10 AM, Uwe Gansert wrote:
