Hello, I'm trying to install Suse 10.3 machines with 11.3 reusing the existing fstab with this: http://www.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/CreateProfile.Partitioning.html#id37680... <partitioning_advanced> <fstab> <!-- Read data from existing fstab. If multiple root partitions are found, use the one specified below. Otherwise the first root partition is taken --> <!-- <root_partition>/dev/hda5</root_partition> --> <use_existing_fstab config:type="boolean">true</use_existing_fstab> <!-- all partitions found in fstab will be formatted and mounted by default unless a partition is listed below with different settings --> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <mount>/bootmirror</mount> </partition> </partitions> </fstab> </partitioning_advanced> by trial and error I found that it is just the other way round: Partitions not listed will be remounted unformated. If I want a partition to be formated I have to list it explicitly <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/bootmirror</mount> </partition> </partitions> Can this observation be confirmed? thanks in advance Axel Geyer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
