Hello, my method of doing headless installs, which worked for years, seems not to function anymore with openSUSE Leap 42.2/42.3/Tumbleweed. everything works, kernel is being downloaded. "boot: Loading setup_linux64........ready. " then the serial console gets blank. after a view minutes the system is being reset. These are the lines I am booting with: kernel setup_linux64 append initrd=setup_initrd64 install=http://download.swabian.net/opensuse/distribution/openSUSE/leap/42.3/repo/os... usessh=1 sshpassword="something" loghost=172.18.0.1 proxy=172.18.0.1:3128 startshell=1 WaitReboot=1 debug=1 gateway=172.18.0.1 nameserver=172.18.0.1 ipv6.disable=1 console=ttyS0,19200 textonly noapic linemode=1 the atftpd log, shows that the initrd is not loaded: Dec 11 16:25:48 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: Serving pxelinux.cfg/AC120003 to 172.18.0.3:49154 Dec 11 16:25:48 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: tsize option -> 2028 Dec 11 16:25:48 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: blksize option -> 1408 Dec 11 16:25:49 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: Server thread exiting Dec 11 16:25:54 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: Serving setup_linux64 to 172.18.0.3:49155 Dec 11 16:25:54 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: tsize option -> 7392880 Dec 11 16:25:54 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: blksize option -> 1408 Dec 11 16:25:57 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: Server thread exiting Dec 11 16:28:26 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: Serving pxelinux.0 to 172.18.0.3:2070 Dec 11 16:28:26 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: tsize option -> 26836 Dec 11 16:28:26 alpha atftpd[21453.140029084808960]: Server thread exiting Am I missing anything? I cannot find the sdb article over headless installs, where I got this method from, anymore. and yes.. network setup is correct.. the kernel and the initrd files are from oss repo and accessible.
