Re: [suse-autoinstall] SLES8 autoyast failure
Christoph, Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately, those entries also do not work (same results), indicating that perhaps I'm not getting a good network connection. During bootup, I get the following messages: Sending DHCP request to eth0 Sending DHCP request to eth0 Since there is no connection to a DHCP server, these requests time out. Does this indicate that perhaps the "ip=192.168.1.2" directive is not working?

You have to specify the right path. It should be something like: linux autoyast=nfs://192.168.1.1/home/test/images/autoinst.xml
install=nfs://192.168.1.1/sles8_install
Again: install=nfs://192.168.1.1/home/test/images/sles8_install Cheers, -- Christoph Thiel (ct@kki.org, cthiel1@linux01.gwdg.de) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-help@suse.com

Oh, try to use HostIP=192.168.1.2 And have a look at http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/linuxrc.html for further information on that. Cheers, -- Christoph Thiel (ct@kki.org, cthiel1@linux01.gwdg.de)

Mh, I had a look at the documentation an found out, that ip=192.168.1.2 should be ok! I'm not sure, if you have to use a netmask and/or gateway. Maybe you can try that out. http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/8.1/html/invoking.html has all the linuxrc keywords. Cheers, -- Christoph Thiel (ct@kki.org, cthiel1@linux01.gwdg.de)
