Hi, autoyast doesn't work on my ibm e325. I reach the autodection hardware, it loads tg3 or bcm5700 driver (depends on my test) but dhcp requests don't reach my dhcp server or if static IP are used, il can't activate the first time the networkd card so it tries a second time, it succeeds, but it tries to mount 0.0.0.0:/install/suse ! It seems it has forgotten the nfs server IP between the two activation. Morever, when I used the following setting DEFAULT linux64 LABEL linux64 KERNEL linux64 APPEND initrd=initrd64 insmod=tg3 hostip=10.252.82.231 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=10.252.82.1 nameserver=10.252.0.228 server=10.252.82.254 install=nfs://10.252.82.254/install/mirrors/suse/64/ autoyast=nfs://10.252.82.230/var/lib/autoinstall/repository/cg99-005.xml textmode=1 PROMPT 1 TIMEOUT 50 and switch to alt+F3 console, I see the following strange line server: 10.252.82.254 (no ip) <-- what does this no ip means ? linux64 and initrd34 are copied from the DVD and renamed to suit my needs. I do the same with the 32 bits version and it's works fine. Can anyone has auto installed the Suse 9.1 Pro (amd64) on an IBM e325 ? I've no problem install it on an IBM x335 (bi xeon) with a broadcom 5703, so I think the problem is on the network card. I'll receive soon a Sunfire v20z for some test, anyone have some information about suse 9.1 pro amd64 and this computer ?

I will have to double check if this info is correct as I am not connected to my office network right now but I belive I installed this box with insmod=bcm5700 acpi=off. Make sure you load the latest firmware on this box as well. Best regards Hubba
