Hi, I configured 2 NICs on my system with 2 static IP in 2 different subnets. Then I used Autoinstallation to save the XML control file. <interfaces config:type="list"> <interface> <bootproto>static</bootproto> <device>eth0</device> <ipaddr>172.24.255.11</ipaddr> <name>CK804 Ethernet Controller</name> <netmask>255.255.0.0</netmask> <startmode>auto</startmode> <usercontrol>no</usercontrol> </interface> <interface> <bootproto>static</bootproto> <device>eth1</device> <ipaddr>172.19.1.1</ipaddr> <name>82541PI Gigabit Ethernet Controller</name> <netmask>255.255.0.0</netmask> <startmode>auto</startmode> <usercontrol>no</usercontrol> </interface> </interfaces> After many installations with AutoYast, most of the time the system would detect CK804 NIC (MAC address) as eth0 and 82541PI (MAC address) as eth1. However, it is not true all the time. So there would be the case that the eth0 with name of CK804 is set to the MAC address of 82541PI NIC and eth1 with name of 82541PI is set to the MAC address of CK804. (CK804 is an integrated NIC and 82541PI is a PCI NIC card). Is there a way to make sure the network settings would be the same after every installation using AutoYast?? (I would like to have one NIC with specific IP setting and the other one has another specific IP setting all the time)? If I use the XML control file to autoinstall on another system with different 2 NICs (not CK804 and 8254 PI anymore), what will happen? By the way, the Linuxrc would always see the CK804 NIC as eth1 and 82541PI as eth0 (at least so far). Is it possible you could kindly point me to some directions so that I could solve those problems. I am not sure how the NICs are detected as eth0, eth1, etc. Why the Linuxrc always detects CK804 as eth1 but most of the time the AutoYast would detect CK804 as eth0? Thank you so much for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I am trying to add some RPMs from the oss repositoiy to the AutoYast installation.

Try also create_sha1sums -x -n .

...

And added following lines to the control XML file:

<add-on> <listentry> nfs://"Server IP"/myInstallSource/updates

nfs://"ServerIP"/installation/repository/OpenSuSE110/ownpackages/ <product>Own Packages</product> / false

...

true / </listentry> </add-on>

looks OK

...

I also added the following lines between the <general><signature-handling> … </signature-handling></general> tags:

<signature-handling> true true true true true </signature-handling>

looks OK

...

I believe I got the NFS server all setup correctly because the control file is also located on the NFS server.

During the installation, I got the "Add-on is not available via NFS" error:

"Please make the add-on "SuSE-Linux-Updates" available via "nfs://"Server IP"/myInstallSource/updates"

Any one can help? What went wrong?

Alan, Did you use the "yast2 autoyast" tool to create the control xml? If you can, it'll be pretty easy to see how to do what you want. You can start the tool and then File->Open your existing control.xml and then modify, I think. Root around in the Bootloader section. if ! "$luck" == "good" then write back && I can probably hack together the xml for you fi Best, Mike Mike Diehn Sr. SysAdmin mike.diehn@ansys.com +1-603-727-5492

Hi, I was wondering if there way to set the DHCP client User Class Option (Option 77) for a network interface using AutoYast or even from the linuxrc boot options? The purpose of doing this is that we would like to have different pools of IP addresses for each user classes so we could assign the dynamic IP to systems based on their user classes.

New subject: [opensuse-autoinstall] Autoyast installation with BISO Raid 1 (fake raid)

Hi, I was trying to use AutoYast to install number of systems with BIOS Raid1. The raid is created by Intel Matrix Storage Manager that comes w/ the system. In my case, when a BIOS Raid1,named Volume0, is created, the name of the device would be like, isw_xxxxx_Volume0. In the autoinst.xml, "/dev/mapper/isw_xxxxx_Volume0", are the values of many parts of the profile. e.g. <bootloader> <linux>/dev/mapper/isw_bbcihdbdh_Volume0</linux> <sections config:type="list"> <section> <append>resume=/dev/mapper/isw_bbcihdbdh_Volume0_part6 splash=silent showopts</append> <root>/dev/mapper/isw_bbcihdbdh_Volume0_part7</root> <partitioning config:type="list"> <drive> <device>/dev/mapper/isw_bbcihdbdh_Volume0</device> The name of BIOS Raid1 would be different each time it gets created and it will cause problems when using the profile to do the installations with different names. Is there a way to get around with it? Like having it to have the same name always? Or can the installation be more dynamically to set the values? Just like the "Ask". However, instead of asking the user to enter values, can we use pre-defined linux commands or scripts in the profile to set the values based on the system settings? Thank you for your time.

Which SUSE Linux version? Since openSUSE 11.0 autoyast should autodetect raid device names if the <device> tags are missing in the profile. If that does not work, you can use a pre-script to detect the device name on your own and modify your profile before the installation starts: http://www.suse.de/~ug/autoyast_doc/createprofile.scripts.html#pre- install.scripts -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

Hi, I use version 11.0. This is what I did for the pre-script in Perl to solve the problem although I am not sure if it is efficient enough. my $infile = "/tmp/profile/autoinst.xml"; my $outfile = "/tmp/profile/modified.xml"; my $line = `dmraid -s -c`; chomp $line; open IN, $infile; open OUT, ">$outfile"; while (<IN>) { if (/(.*)isw(.*)Volume0(.*)/) { print OUT "$1$line$3\n"; } else {print OUT $_;} } close IN; close OUT; ------------------------------------- Any comments?

New subject: [opensuse-autoinstall] Autoyast installation with Network Card Interfaces Detection (openSuse 11.0)

Hi, I have 2 NICs on the system and one is used to connect to the NFS server for AutoYast installation. When AutoYast has completed the system configuration and booting the system for the first time, quite oftenly, one of the NICs cannot be detected by the system and causing the LAN setting cannot be set correctly based on the profile later on. It would be even worse If the un-found interface is the one used for connecting to the server. Is this the problem of AutoYast or openSuse itself? Why all the NICs can't be picked up all the time?
