Hi Martin, I'm using SLES 9. insserv works with my scripts. I've a workaround for the autoinst.xml that works but I want to use the services syntax. My workaround: <scripts> <chroot-scripts config:type="list"/> <post-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <filename>post.sh</filename> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <source> <![CDATA[ #!/bin/sh insserv configure_system insserv FIT_add_admin ]]> </source> </script> </post-scripts> <pre-scripts config:type="list"/> </scripts> Greets Hartmut Martin Vidner <mvidner@suse.cz> An: Hartmut.Dunker@finanzit.com Kopie: suse-autoinstall@suse.com 04.11.2004 09:45 Thema: Re: [suse-autoinstall] How to define services to enable or disable?

I tried to distribute own services in /etc/init.d and added a section to my autoinst.xml to enable this services after installation. For comparison I added a section for disable a system service (xdm). This also is ignored and the service is enabled after installation. Where is the fault in my example?

<configure> .... <runlevels> <default>3</default> <services config:type="list" > <service> <service_name>configure_system</service_name> <service_status>enable</service_status> </service> <service> <service_name>FIT_add_admin</service_name> <service_status>enable</service_status> </service> <service> <service_name>xdm</service_name> <service_status>disable</service_status> </service> </services> </runlevels> </configure>

Hi Hartmut, what release are you using? So did your own services get enabled? If not, does "insserv FIT_add_admin" succeed in a running system? -- Martin Vidner, developer SuSE CR, s.r.o. e-mail: mvidner@suse.cz Drahobejlova 27 tel:+420-296542373 190 00 Praha 9, Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz
