To people who have gotten <location> references to work, can you email me 1: The relevent (scripts) portion of your autoyast.xml 2: A pxeboot config file. I am curious if tweaking the dhcp settings may help. I tried a boot with DHCP=0 and useDHCP=0, passing in HostIP, IPAddr, netmask, gateway and nameserver. Not only did the <location> script still not get installed, but the installation bombed out after reboot, as for some reason, post install it tries to install libcap from the nfs source. Since this works with DHCP, it seems that there must be some network up at some point after the reboot before autoyast is finished. Which goes back to my original question. At what script point are both the network and the filesystem available. (and where)

Makes 2 of us.

Were you using static IP's or DHCP?

yep, I couldn't get <location> to work for a post-install script. y2log had a curl rc 7 failure when retrieving the script. I tried ftp and http, no luck.
so, I would also be interested in any debug info...I may revisit this later.

Heya all
Since I cant seem to get the <location> option to work, and since in
i can get <location> working just fine, using http://<ip>/path it kinda "just worked" for me :)
At least one other person responded that they didn't work. Maybe it is isolated to a particular network card or config? I don't know. These two errors lead me to think it's a network issue. (I did also try http, with the same lack of success.)

If there is any other debugging I can do, please let me know.
sles10, init scripts changed to run before the network is
up. (which
hmm. not according to http://www.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/createprofile.scripts.htm l (and my setup) :
"Starting from SLES9, network is not available during post-installation script execution. To access the
device has to be configured in the script.
It is possible to execute the post scripts in an earlier
network, network phase while
the installation network is still up and before AutoYaST configures the system. To run network enabled post scripts, the boolean property network_needed has to be set to true."
this is about postinstall, not init scripts - which, in turn :
"These scripts are executed during the initial boot process and after YaST2 has finished. The final scripts are executed using a special init.d script which is executed only once. The final scripts are executed toward the end of the boot process and after network has been intialized."
i have an init script which nicely downloads required files, and it works fine.
