Good morning! I have some problems using AutoYaST to test the automatic installation I made from within VMware. But first things first. My target is to generate a bootable DVD that should be used to "reset" testing servers. The installation should run as quietly and automatic as possible from inserting the DVD and powering up the system to a complete system with Samba & Oracle. The configuration files can be retrieved at http://www.badongo.com/file/1308770 While the used linuxrc.config & info files should tell AutoYaST to use a static IP address (using VMwares emulated AMD PCnet32 card) it always tries to fetch information from a DHCP server, which is not present, or skips this step all together without BOOTP fallback. This is a major problem since the autoinstall directives should be fetched by HTTP. As soon as the installation proceeds past this it stops short at partitioning. I already tried using fresh disks (remember, still in VMware) and disks that had all required partitions written but to no avail. Is this a general problem with VMware or did I find a glitch? I would really like to be able to continue my test within VMware since I don't want to stress out the hardware now and have it break too soon. Regards, Peter
