is it possible to set the url of the installation source in the autoyast xml file? I use kernel parameters like install=http://IP/sles9 autoyast=http://IP/sles9.xml for installation at the moment. The only use of autoyast=http://IP/sles9.xml would be nice.
that's not possible at the moment.
The automatic generation of the xml file didn't succeed. When I tried to generate a reference profile and activated the partitioning resource (I installed on LVM) no Partition configs were actually written. My solution was to copy the data from a former generated SuSE 9.3 xml file.
that's a neat combination of two bugs in the UI I found recently. While creating the reference profile, don't choose any of the "Basic Resources". They will be cloned then, including the partitioning.
Additionally i couldn't find a possibility to set the root password in the dialog. The username root is not permitted in the "Security and users" -> "edit and create" tab. So I also took the values from the 9.3 file, too.
do "Set Filter" to "System Users" in the UI. You'll see the system users including root then. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nürnberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de
