Hello All, I was trying a netboot and ftp install of SLES10 Beta7 on a Power4 box. The box is question is a p630 and I tried netbooting using the inst64 image. While netbooting does work ok, I ran into media read errors while trying to read software packages in the 'Installation Settings' window. Does anyone have a pointer to some workaround for this?
How does your installation source look like? You have to export CD1 with name '/somedir/CD1', and pass this via install install=http://server/somedir/CD1 from the kernel cmdline. In case of netboot, either walk through the linuxrc menus or use mkzimage_cmdline to encode a kernel cmdline into the inst64 file.
