SuSE 9.1 autoyast2-installation-2.9.34-1 autoyast2-2.9.34-1 It seems as if /usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/security.dtd is missconfigured and therefore the validiation of an ENTITY security does not work in autoyast: 1. passwd_encryption is listed twice in Line 1: <!ENTITY % y2_security "console_shutdown| cracklib_dict..... 2. encryption is not listed in Line 1 but defined as ELEMENT 3. The line <!ELEMENT security (%y2_security;)*> is missing leaving security undefined... only the local y2_security is defined, but in profile.dt security is used ... if in Line 1 one of the two "passwd_encryption" is changed to "encryption" AND a line: <!ELEMENT security (%y2_security;)*> is added all seems to be okay. Maybe other "validate errors" can be repaired the same way. But WARNING I am not an expert, only a nearly frustrated user of autoyast... Best regards -- Dipl. Phys.
