RE: [suse-autoinstall] Problems autoinstalling to a Compaq server
Hey Steve, I do not know if it is possible to add all the parameters as parameters. To me it looks like you did so. You need a file called 'info' containing all the parameters: it should look like this: ######begin od info######## LINUXRC netdevice: eth0 serverdir: /install autoyast=nfs://10.1.1.2/depot/suse80.xml instmode: nfs ip=10.1.1.1 netmask=255.255.255.0 insmod: e100 insmod: cpqarray insmod: ncr53c8xx #######end of info######### To find out, what you need just have a look at the documentation: http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/8.0/html/invoking.html Regards Thorsten -----Original Message----- From: Neruda, Steve (SCI TW) To: 'suse-autoinstall@suse.com' Sent: 05.11.2002 16:47 Subject: [suse-autoinstall] Problems autoinstalling to a Compaq server I have a couple of problems getting autoinstallation to work with a Compaq system 1) The SmartArray uses logical device naming rather than traditional ie: rather than sd0a it would have /dev/ida/c0d0p1 (controller 0, disk 0, partition 0 Can the autoinstall disk partitioning section be configured to grok this type of disk addressing? 2) I'm not using dhcp because of the enviroment I'm working in so I kick things off with explicit linux rc options: linux ip=10.1.1.1 netmask=255.255.255.0 insmod=e100 autoyast=nfs://10.1.1.2/depot/suse80.xml install=nfs://10.1.1.2/depot/suse80 instmod=nfs In the case of the compaq server I also need to insert two more modules "cpqarray" and "ncr53c8xx". I've tried using multiple insmod= lines insmod=e100 insmod=cpqarray insmod=ncr53c8xx and also using comma seperated modules insmod=e100,cpqarray,ncr538xx but neither method seems to work. I've done fairly extensive searches on google and other places and can't seem to find decent documentation for linuxrc and how to do this. Does anyone have a clue?
