SLES 10 and disk to disk autoyast installation
Hello,
I am trying to autoinstall SLES 10 in HD mode (disk to disk). It worked for SLES 9 but does not any longer with SLES 10.
The problem is that YaST tries to mount my source partition when formating the other partitions and this fails because the source partition is alerady mounted.
This is my partition schema:
sda1: ext3 16GB
sda2: swap
sda3: fat32 16BG
The third partition does contain the installation source. This is the autoyast partition plan:
<partitioning config:type="list">
<drive>
<device>/dev/sda</device>
<initialize config:type="boolean">false</initialize>

I can not reproduce that. I tried exactly your setup (except that I have to use hda instead of sda) and I was not able to trigger that error. I can reproduce the problem of Niall Calvert who has trouble with EVMS and the installation source on the harddisk but your setup is working fine here. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug now playing Covenant - Humility

for the archive. The problem was the partition_id on the vfat partition. Changing that to 131 solved the problem. Otherwise autoyast tries to mount it to /windows/d -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug now playing Clan of Xymox - Taste of Medicine
