http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537250 Summary: network install is impossible Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lmuelle@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Development The system has no cd drive. Therefore I've downloaded the initrd and linux file as suggested by http://en.opensuse.org/Network_Install from the /factory/repo/oss/boot/i386/loader/ directory. The install fails after the third of six steps (Loading Installation System) with the message "No repository found.". I've tested this with download.opensuse.org, ftp5.gwdg.de, and 134.76.12.5 as hostname. These are the install kernel and initrd files I've used. gab:~ # sha1sum /boot/*-install cc726dec0e8334dc1e33b56ecfc224b2219aecca /boot/initrd-install e86861e78dc71cf69966b908105ae441933b939b /boot/vmlinuz-install gab:~ # ls -l /boot/*-install -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24293440 4.
