There was a patch which was removed just because of this problem, for this to work, you also need to update yast2-2.9.*.rpm.

I have yast2-2.9.75-0.2 from the SLES-9-i386-RC5-CD2.iso from download.novell.com. I can't find any updates anywhere for this.

Greetings,

I seem to have found a bug. The latest yast2-installation RPM does not provide an installation client module:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ linux:~ # rpm -qa | grep ^yast2-installation yast2-installation-2.9.86-0.2 linux:~ # yast2 installation linux:~ # rpm -Uvh yast2-installation-2.9.89-0.2.noarch.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:yast2-installation ########################################### [100%] linux:~ # rpm -qa | grep ^yast2-installation yast2-installation-2.9.89-0.2 linux:~ # yast2 installation No such client module installation

Run 'yast2 -h' for help on usage ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This means that if yast2-installation-2.9.89-0.2.noarch.rpm is included in an autoyast updates directory the installation will not complete: network devices aren't set up, passwords aren't set, etc. If I remove this package and rebuild the descriptions the installation goes as expected.

So, this is an FYI to the list and a request to any SuSE/Novell people to get this corrected.

Regards,

-Deke

Well, this is a link, but the question is where was it linked from?

The directory path is mentioned in the emails I get from maintenance-info@suse.de about package updates. I downloaded all the 'whole' RPMs (not patches or partials) from there and used those as the update directory in my install tree. -Deke
