[opensuse-autoinstall] NFS installation fails
Hello, I'm trying to install from a nfs repository. The client is booting over the network with tftp and has this arguments submitted: label install openSUSE 11.1 kernel linux append initrd=initrd splash=silent vga=0x314 showopts autoyast=http://192.168.0.111/autoyast/test1.xml hostip=192.168.0.14/24 gateway=192.168.0.254 nameserver=130.83.22.60 install=nfs://192.168.0.250/install/openSUSE_11.1_i568/ I always get the error that the openSUSE repository could not be found. That's some kind of strange because on my "normal" machine I can mount the directory "install". For tftp-boot I'm using linuxrc V.3.4.7 with Kernel 2.6.31.4-3-default. Is installation via nfs still broken like in 11.0?

this is working fine here: inst-sys:~ # mount 10.10.0.162:/space/exports/11.1_install/DVD1 on /var/adm/mount/AP_0x00000001 type nfs (ro,nolock,soft,timeo=300,addr=10.10.0.162,nfsvers=3,proto=tcp,mountproto=udp) pxe config: append initrd=initrd_11.1 install=nfs://10.10.0.162/space/exports/11.1_install/DVD1 autoyast=http://10.10.0.162/part1.xml insecure=1 hostip=10.10.4.153/16 nameserver=10.10.0.1 gateway=10.10.0.8 I did a dhcp test too which is working fine -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

Hi, very strange. When I boot from DVD and give the same arguments on the boot screen it also works. Maybe my my pxe file? My one: append initrd=initrd Yours: append initrd=initrd_11.1 What's "insecure=1" ? Thanks!

Yours: append initrd=initrd_11.1
makes no difference. My kernel and initrd always have the version in the name.
What's "insecure=1" ?
insecure=1 is not needed. It was left because of another test I did. If you use an unsigned driverupdate file, you can suppress a warning with insecure=1. I can remove the parameter and it still works. When you see the "cant find install source" popup, you can enter all the values manually in a textmode UI that raises. Does it work then if you enter the same values there? You can add "linuxrc.debug=1 linuxrc.log=/logfile" too to see some debug infos of linuxrc -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
