Question - why do you use a boot floppy in the first place, as opposed to booting via PXE? If the machine's BIOS supports PXE this is far easier.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,

I've got a big problem. I try to install SuSE 8.2 with autoyast and use as bootdevice a floppy disk. The rest of the installation (config file for autoyast, installation directory) is available from the network. I enter at the bootprompt "insmod=eepro100" but the installer never asks for modules 3 disk. After manually loading the correct module the installation takes place. Is it possible to tell yast/autoyast to load modules not only from the boot disk and modules 1?

Thanx in advance,

Dierk
