Custom media, no first reboot
I have asked this before and either missed the reply or did not get an answer. I have JDS which in based off SLES8. I have a bunch of new patches, plus some other RPMs that I want to add to the install media, and I am have made my own yast directory with installorder and order file, everything works mostly as expected. But, one thing is different. During the very first boot of the system installation starts, and all of the RPMS get installed on this one boot, there is not a boot after the RPMS from Disk1 have been installed. I don't think this is causing me any issues, the StarOffice RPM is the only RPM that installs (during network installs only) after the initial boot. Any idea of how to get the initial reboot to happen after Disk1 of JDS and Disk1 of my patches are installed? Todd

I hope got you right but even then, I'm not sure if I can help. First you can try to add: <install> <general> <mode> <forceboot config:type="boolean">true</forceboot>·· </mode> </general> </install> And if this does not help, you can try to install from an NFS source (I guess you are using ftp or http or something like this at the moment?) With NFS the RPMs are not getting copied to the local machine and so you don't need that much memory. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de
