Hi List,
as everybody else, I'm playing with this nice new toy^h^h^h tool. I like it very much - but sometimes one runs still in some small problems:
Fetching the file as "autoinst.xml" from floppy works fine, and typing an http path to the control file to the boot prompt, too : autoyast=http://123.123.123.231/1.xml works as advertised.
But if I try to give a NFS path for the control file like this autoyast=nfs://123.123.123.231:/autoinstall/1.xml yast doesn't find the control file on the first try and asks for it later in the installation again. When I fill out that GUI request with the same data, it *does* work. (The directory is exported to everybody and the file is readable by everybody.)
The boot prompt takes an NFS installation source without further questions: install=nfs://123.123.123.111:/installs/suse8.0
Try without the : in the URL, this is a known issue and it was fixed and an updated version will be available for nfs installs soon. So the URL should look like this: install=nfs://123.123.123.111/installs/suse8.0 Regards, Anas
Anybody who does fetch the contol file via NFS successfully ? Other experiences ?
Best regards,
