Hi,

I'm having a bit of trouble with remotely installing SLES10 (X86_64) over the network with post scripts defined.

The profile I have works fine.... until I add this section for scripts:

<scripts> <post-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <network_needed config:type="boolean">true</network_needed> <filename>test.sh</filename> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <source><![CDATA[ #!/bin/sh ################################ # Setup script for new servers # ################################## # Add host entry for sudo server # ################################## echo "10.245.13.12 dserv-mgt sudo-host" >> /etc/hosts #################################################### ############################################## # Start up NFS and untar LINUX_NEWSERVER.tar # ############################################## mkdir -p /media/nfs /etc/init.d/portmap start mount 10.244.35.51:/depot/SUSE/i386 /media/nfs cd / tar -xvf /media/nfs/conf/S10LINUX_NEWSERVER.tar ]]> </source> </script> </post-scripts> </scripts>

I even tried splitting it out, using location instead:

<scripts> <post-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <network_needed config:type="boolean">true</network_needed>

<location>http://10.244.35.51:/conf/scripts/SLES10.sh</location> </script> </post-scripts> </scripts>

Doesn't matter what I try, I get the same results (thought it might be a network problem to start with). I even tried the above with the location line deleted and had the same error. I've even stripped the script down to a basic echo out to a file - same error. This, however, works fine under SLES9.

The problem? After the first reboot, it detects the network card, goes on to perform 'installation', I briefly see a message about running scripts, then the hald stops with the error:

/usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.call: line 306: 4074 Aborted

The system has not been set up correctly (in-fact I can't even log in - I ended up using a screen capture to get the error message above). As soon as I remove everything from <scripts> to </scripts> all works fine again (the system installs correctly).

Not sure what I am missing here.....
