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"> <deploy_image> <image_installation config:type="boolean">false</image_installation> </deploy_image> </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.

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)?

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.
