Hi, I'm trying to start autoyast via pxe. To do so, I just took over the config that worked for SuSE 9.0, but for SuSE 9.1, yast will always start in textmode only when kernel and initrd are loaded over net. This is even for the very basic process when I don't invoke autoyast at all. I.e., I use pxelinux.cfg: label linux kernel linux append initrd=initrd and use the linux and the initrd file from the SuSE 9.1 DVD from boot/loader/ Then after loading the ramdisk, yast2 starts, I see the graphical interface for second, then it is gone. After a while the textmode yast2 comes up, and on Ctrl-Alt-F8 I see a warning from X: Server is already active for display 0 and the usual X stuff around. y2start.log just tells me that X didn't start. However, when I boot from the DVD, yast2 comes up in graphics mode. So the textmode just seems to be fored when booting the kernel and the initrd via PXE. Any hints?? Has anyone seen a similar effect? With SuSE 9.0 there was no problem! cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform. Frank Steiner Web: http://www.bio.ifi.lmu.de/~steiner/ Lehrstuhl f.
