Hello everyone,
while i am a quite experiencied user of autoyast, it is the first time I
use <rules>!
From the docs I understand you should remove "autoyast=...", is it?. If
I do this I get a manual installation, what seems reasonable as my new
system knows nothing about where to fetch a control file!
If, alternatively, I pass a "autoyast=http://10.7.5.100/autoinstall/",
being this directory both valid and the container of a unique xml file
(control.xml), that is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE autoinstall SYSTEM "/usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/rules.dtd">
<autoinstall xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns"
xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns">
<rules config:type="list">
<rule>
<mac>
<match>*</match>

Setting autoyast= to point to your autoinstall directory (with the trailing slash!) is the right thing to do. You should put your rules in a file named rules.xml in the directory autoinstall/rules/
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE autoinstall SYSTEM "/usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/rules.dtd"> <autoinstall xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns"> <rules config:type="list"> <rule> <mac> <match>*</match>
exact </mac> <result> <profile>default.xml</profile> <continue config:type="boolean">true</continue> </result> </rule> </rules> </autoinstall>pls have in mind I am still testing, and with this file I only pretend to use the whole default.xml (http://10.7.5.100/autoinstall/rules/default.xml) but it doesn't work. By the way, default.xml is a complete, valid and working control file, that has been previously tested in a "autoyast=http://10.7.5.100/autoinstall/default.xml" installation.
Any help? Thanks in advance!

One more thing:
pls have in mind I am still testing, and with this file I only pretend to use the whole default.xml (http://10.7.5.100/autoinstall/rules/default.xml) but it doesn't work. By the way, default.xml is a complete, valid and working control file, that has been previously tested in a "autoyast=http://10.7.5.100/autoinstall/default.xml" installation.
Is default.xml in the autoinstall directory or in the autoinstall/rules directory? If it is the latter then your rule should say so:
<rule> <mac> <match>*</match>
exact </mac> <result> <profile>rules/default.xml</profile> <continue config:type="boolean">true</continue> </result> </rule>
that is, the profile is relative to the autoinstall directory.
Thanks a lot!. Worked like a charm. Perhaps it might be clearer in the docs... Joseph V Moss wrote:

You should put your rules in a file named rules.xml in the directory autoinstall/rules/
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE autoinstall SYSTEM "/usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/rules.dtd"> <autoinstall xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns"> <rules config:type="list"> <rule> <mac> <match>*</match>
