Hi *, first a thanks to Anas! You installer makes it a lot easier to setup a classroom. The grub-bootdisk is also excelent! No F*** Bootdisk compiling! :-) But I have a problem with the post-chroot script. I wrote an script to change the IP and a lot of other things. But the script is never started. I created the file with yast2 a couple of times or write it my one, but nothing helps! I´ve attached the autoinstall.xml. Another problem is the smpkernel. I think there is a bug with the eepro100 drivers. They don´t work with the smp kernel, the driver loads but there is no RX or TX. When I append "nosmp maxcpus=0" every thing works fine. The k_deflt kernel works good, too. I hope someone will help me with this problems. CU Jens

You HAVE use complete path to the files. In the Chroot scripts any path has to be prepended with /mnt. The scripts are executed when the system is still mounted under /mnt Anas

Cause the system is still in chroot environment at this phase. YaST is not running in this enviroment.
Know I´m totaly confused. At first I will try to add /mnt to all Path and to add the FullPath to all non-internal commands.
The difference is that post-scripts are executed only _after_ the system has booted the first time. In your case you might want to use post-script. Anas

Now it works. I´ve changed the changeroot to the post-script and everythings works perfect. I don´t understand why you name it chroot. I´ve used RH-Kickstart before and I´m still confused. But anyway it works an thats the most important thing. Thanks for the help. CU Jens

Well, you are right about the naming. I admit it's not the most successfull name for this particular type of scripts! Suggestions welcome.. Anas
Thanks for the help.
