I switched from addons with 10.0 to patterns with 10.2 but it does not work as expected. If I use patterns and additional packages then autoinstall tries to install packages first which will fail of course as vital files are missing (sh, libz ...). Well, I had the same problem for a while, until I realized

I suggest you start without add ons (or updates) at all.

Then move on to one add on package and make pretty damn sure that it is correctly built.

Hi Lars,

please note that I do not use any self made addon packages. Check my example. It is very simple and does not work. Using base + kde patterns is fine but as soon as I add a single simple predefinded package like <package>lynx</package> (to add the lynx rpm) it fails as described.

I will try and check for clues in the logfiles.

Ah, I see, your first sentence mentioned addons, that threw me off. In any case, my statement stands, patterns works just fine. A goos starting point is to clone an already installed machine. That's were I take most of my stuff from. Below's a working set that I use a lot now, it's taken from a cloned autoinst.xml after installing Minimal with Graphic. And it is working. Maybe that set could give you a clue.
