Bit of a shot in the dark - I'm playing with auto-yast, but when I try to clone an existing installation (yast clone_system), I get a virtually empty file: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE profile> <profile xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns"> false </profile> I did open a bugreport, but Stefan can't reproduce the problem. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=899714 Any suggestions as to how to proceed with this? thanks. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (-1.9°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org

It worked for me, at least partially (bootloader part didn't work IIRC); I will be back from vacation next monday, we could compare packages and patterns then. I've never tried using "yast clone_system" directly though. Does cloning work if you run "yast autoyast" and then clone the system from there (and save the file)? -- Kind regards Christopher 'm4z' Holm / 686f6c6d "We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart." --H.

Hi Christopher it looks like the problem was something like this: during installation, I tried out both "clone system" and "export configuration" and one of them defaulted to writing "control.xml" to / - this ended up as /etc/YaST/control.xml and caused the "clone_system" not to work. I might retry the whole thing this week. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (3.9°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org
