Error while configuring partitions. Try again. Error!
Hello. I am trying to create a custom SuSe CD such that it will install SuSe 9.3and certain custom packages without any user interactions. On my first try, using the autoYaST tool I made a reference profile and tried to automate the install procedure using that. However during the "Preparing System for Automated Installation" phase I get the following pop up error during the "Create partition plans" part; Error: Error while configuring partitions. Try again. Thinking that something might be wrong I decided to try again with the most basic profile file possible. So I used the profile as decribed in the FAQs at http://www.suse.com/~ug/AutoYaST_FAQ.html, (i.e. FAQ 1.4 What is the smallest profile that makes sense?). However even with that basic profile I got the same error, i.e. Error: Error while configuring partitions. Try again. I also did look into the y2log, but could not find anything wrong there. It seemed to detect the harddrive alright. Just to make sure there were no hardware problems, I tried installing it from the Suse installation CDs. The Suse CD seems to correctly detect the harddrive, and created the partitions properly. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing that error, or how I could go about trying to find out what is causing it and/or how to fix it? Thank you in advance. Regards, Hussain.

that's strange. I need the complete /var/log/YaST2/ directory with the log files to see what's going wrong. Send me your autoyast profile too then. Send all that to me, not to the autoyast list. -- 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
