install=ftp://host.name/path/to/network/install/source autoyast=ftp://host.name/path/to/autoinstall.xml Never created a CD myself, but those are the two critical parameters you need on the kernel command line to kick off an autoinstall. And of course a working network install source and a working autoyast .xml file. Good luck Yan that default to install from the http installation source we provide. Today and yesterday I have been struggling with autoyast and (what the hell) I cannot find a way to specify default installation source for creating customized mini-install CD. The autoyast document (http://www.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/) has a lot of pages and I read through them, there are all options about how to partition, how to set up RAID, how to setup user account and do software selection, but no simple answer on how to specify network installation source URI. I also tried to reach a lot of webpages about yast2-cd-creator, so far it seems yast2-cd-creator can neither use network installation source nor can it create CDR that can use network installation source. I also tried to create my own bootable CDROM and assign boot parameter 'install=ftp://our.ftp.inst-source.mirror/opensuse/distribution/10.2' and 'install=ftp://our.ftp.inst-source.mirror:/opensuse/distribution/10.2' in /boot/i386/loader/isolinux.cfg and create bootable CDR with 'mkisofs -b .. -c ..' and both do not seem to work (after boot, still prompt me for installation source and path, default path is '/' so my path setting seems have no effect) So I am completely stuck here: I don't know how can I go on. What's worse, tomorrow is the day when we collected a lot of new guys who wish to try Linux together for a workshop, at which event we shall distribute the CDR. Before the event I planned two days for working out this issue (yesterday and today) and I don't understand why this problem look so simple (create CD with pre-defined installation source URI) but this difficult to do. I almost read every webpage I can google out.
