Hello,
I habe a suse10.1 system and I am trying to do an autoinstall on it. This
works if there are no linux partitions on it but it fails when I do the auto
install the second time, so there are already linux partitions (boot,
swap, /) in place.
In the autoyast file I said:
<partitioning config:type="list">
<drive>
<device>/dev/hda</device>
<initialize config:type="boolean">false</initialize>
<use>linux</use>
<partitions config:type="list">
<partition>
<crypt>twofish256</crypt>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">ext2</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
false
<mount>/boot</mount>
131
<size>64M</size>
</partition>
...
</partitions>
</drive>
</partitioning>
As far as I understood the documentation <use>linux</use> should delete all
linux specific partitions or reuse them.
What I get is during "Create parrtition plans" an error box simply saying
"Error while configuring partitions. Try again". However this does not tell
me what autoyast thinks is wrong. I looked in /var/adm/autoinstall/logs/ but
this directory is still empty.
Does anyone know how to get more information what went wrong or why autoyast
fails to drop the existing linux partitions and create new ones?
Thanks
Rainer
