Hi! I'm a newbie to this list. I am trying this list because I have
received no response from Novell's own forum for installing SLES10. I
have a SLES9 server we use for Autoyast NFS network installs of SLES9
servers. I am trying to set it up with a SLES10 build in the same
manner. Everything looks good as far as copying files from the CD isos
up to the installation source directory, and the directories look good
and mount ok via NFS, but when I try to install via NFS using the boot
from a SLES10 DVD, it reaches a point where it stops with a list of the
packages we put in the XML profile and says it can't find the packages.
After hitting enter, then it says it can't find the patterns. I can see
the packages in Suse/i586 and the patterns files in Suse/setup/descr.
Both of these places are pointed to in the content file. The path given
for the installation source directory is correct. The install server
syslog reports repeated authentication for mounts and unmounts for the
nfs with no errors. Can someone help me with what I am missing here? Can
it somehow be not finding the path or dropping the path? TIA!
