Getting profile with http on custom CD
Hi, I would like to create a custom installation CD that gets the profile from a http server, but I'm having several problems with the append parameters on my isolinux.cfg file: If I use "append initrd=initrd ramdisk_size=65536 autoyast=http://193.146.185.99/profiles/ instmode=cdrom" the installer doesn't find the profiles, although the are perfectly accessible on the server. I've tried also using "install=cdrom://" or "install=file://" instead of "instmode=cdrom", but the problem persisted. If I use "append initrd=initrd ramdisk_size=65536 autoyast=http://193.146.185.99/profiles/" (omitting the install or instmode parameter), the installer tries to locate a network installation server with a DHCP query and doesn't use the CD as installation media. I don't use a DHCP server, I just enter manually the network parameters (netdevice, ip, netmask, etc.) at the boot prompt, so I get an error at this stage. ¿Can somebody tell me what kernel parameters should I use? ¿is it a bug in yast2's automated installation?
