[opensuse-autoinstall] opensuse 11.4 pxe installation - no repository in 'iso:/?iso=openSUSE-11.4-DVD-i586.iso&url=nfs://...
Hello, I'm trying to install opensuse 11.4 and so far the machine loads pxe, starts initrd and linux, and starts the installation process. At some point it looks to add repositories and I get an error message saying there was a problem adding a repository.

Hi, just a wild guess: Try appending "netw=dhcp" also. IIRC, the docs state that networking is enabled automatically when "http://" or other network style paths are used, but it didn't work for me in every case. After PXE, the machine would simply forget it had and should use network of any kind. And in these cases, it failed at the repository step, too, since that seems to be the first case the transmitted kernel tries to talk to the world. I don't know about nfs, but on http you can check in the server logs if the client really contacted the server. This does not explain why it worked on 11.2 and 11.3 though, and the error could also indicate there is something wrong with the iso (there really is no repo on there, maybe). tty, 686f6c6d -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

So I decided to configure a temporary http server on another machine and this works as well. That machine mounts the directory through nfs. So I suspect there's a problem with the nfs installation or they changed some options. Any other suggestions?

Since the ISO wasn't working, I tried with the repo and it didn't work either. I noticed there was another error in the log file about the nfs mount failing which would explain why nothing is working. However there's no reason it should fail since I can do the mount manually on the same machine from one of the terminals and if I just replace 11.4 with 11.3 it works. Since the same directory works through http, it's not a problem with the repo either. I'm out of ideas. If we have to, we'll setup an http server, but I'd prefer not to.

can you loop mount the ISO on the nfs server and export that then? I want to know if it's a problem with ISO or with nfs in general. In any case it would be nice if you could open a bugreport against 11.4. Maybe there's really something broken on 11.4 When you see the error, take the y2log file and attach it to the bug please. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert 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

Sorry about the delay. I haven't tried your suggestion yet but since I can't do the install from an ISO or from a repo, I think it's an NFS problem.

I did further tests to try and determine what worked and what didn't. I had a look at bugzilla last week and I couldn't find a mention of this problem. Yesterday when I was going to submit a report, I saw that someone else had a very similar problem. I posted my comments in his report.

oh, okay. I overlooked that in your mails. Then it's probably an NFS installation issue

Hi, do you mount the nfs repo (when trying to install with autoyast) with exact the same rights as when you are doing it manually? Could it depend on the access rights on the nfs-repo-server?

Here I made an error in reasoning. What I need is a possibility to set additional mount options in autoyast NOT in linuxrc! Is there a possibility to do that? Or is it possible to start rpc.statd at that point of installation? Some versions ago it was possible, but with 11.4 it seems to be more difficult.

Hello, I did have similar problems... Check the way you pass the URL, the problem lies somewhere in the "iso:/" part: I experiemented with "iso://" and "iso:///" and did get it working with one of them as far as I remember. Alternatively: The problem is the combination of mounting an iso image thru nfs. Try extracting your iso file on the nfs server into a directory and then use a plain "nfs://<server>/<directory/" repository. That works for sure! On 05/24/2011 03:44 PM, Pierre Girard wrote:

I won't retype all I said in the past on the subject since it's all in the bugzilla and I tried installs with ISO and with repo. It didn't work when the NFS server was a solaris 10 machine, but it worked when it was an opensuse machine.

For me that was exactly the problem with my old server. The point is, that in openSUSE 11.4 the NFS default version ist 4! Some (old) servers can't handle that. I solved it as follows: I created the config file /etc/nfsmount.conf at the very beginning of the installation by help of the following driver update "update.pre":
#! /bin/bash
###----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ### create (or modify) /etc/nfsmount.conf
OPTIONSFILE="/etc/nfsmount.conf"
test -f $OPTIONSFILE && {
sed -i "/^# Defaultvers=4/ a\Defaultvers=3" $OPTIONSFILE
} || {
echo "[ NFSMount_Global_Options ]" > $OPTIONSFILE echo "Defaultvers=3" >> $OPTIONSFILE }
###-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This sets the client NFS default version to 3 (instead of 4) for the installation. Using the same script as "update.post" (just a soft link to "update.pre" within the driver update) does the same for the installed system at the end of the installation. I put both files (or the file and the link) into the following directory structure linux/ suse/ i386-11.4 -> x86_64-11.4 x86_64-11.4/ install/ dud.config install/ update.post -> update.pre update.pre and build a driver update with find linux | cpio -oVH newc > dud.cpio gzip dud.cpio Finally I added the option dud=nfs://<server-ip>//<path>/dud.cpio.gz to my pxe config:
default linux
label linux kernel linux64 append insecure=1 textmode=0 noshell=0 load_ramdisk=1 initrd=initrd64 vga=0x317 insmod=e1000e nfsopts=udp dud=nfs://<server-ip>//<path>/dud.cpio.gzinstall=nfs://... autoyast=nfs://...
Additionally I have to start rpcbind rpc.statd in our pre-script and post-script. Maybe you can also put this into the driver update but I haven't - for historical reasons. That's it. Now the installation over NFS works fine! Hope this helps with the installation from ISO via NFS as well. Special thanks go to Steffen Winterfeldt who had the idea to use a driver update and helped me a lot with the driver update mechanism!

I use OS11.4, NFSv4 and PXE boot without any problems: My pxe config: ... LABEL opensuse114 MENU LABEL opensuse114 64 KERNEL /os114/boot/x86_64/loader/linux ramdisk_size=65536 APPEND initrd=/os114/boot/x86_64/loader/initrd UseDHCP=1 InstMode=nfs Install=nfs://10.0.0.1/daten/repos/11.4/oss vga=788 splash=silent insecure=1 Language=de_DE netdevice=eth0 showopts ... My /etc/exports: /daten 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0(ro,crossmnt,no_root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check) Maybe check your /etc/sysconfig/nfs: NFS_SECURITY_GSS="no" NFS3_SERVER_SUPPORT="yes" NFS4_SUPPORT="no" -- Matthias -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
