Options for bootloader
Hello, I would like to install the bootloader with default settings during automated install, except for kernel parameters. So I tried <bootloader> <parameters>apm=off acpi=off</parameters> </bootloader> but that does not work as expected (i.e. the parameters do not make their way in the lilo.conf file). The reason I want to use default settings is the fact, that I do not see any possibility to determine in advance which partition will become "/". At least I could not find a way to specify partition numbers. Any hints on how to do that?

It seems the configuration system is configuring the bootloader with the wring variable name. Please use <kernel_parameters> instead as described in: http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/autoyast2/createprofile.bootloader.ht... Sorry about that. Also make sure you use the latest update package from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/nashif/autoyast2/RPMS/ (in this case package: yast2-module-autoinst-2.5.25-0.noarch.rpm) Anas
