I worked long time with initrd and linux from a SLES 10 or 11 for my tftp boot I think and it worked fine. Problems startet with tests of autoinstallation 11.3. When I start the installation I have install=nfs://myserver/openSUSE_11.3_i568/ on the console. Maybe when I did some rsync update on that directory (I have mirrored there some repositorys like opensuse-mozilla and opensuse-openoffice too) something changed?
Copying the original linux, initrd and pxelinux.0 files from openSUSE 11.3 DVD / installation to my tftp-boot directory brought me to a completely broken boot.
To install an openSUSE 11.3, you should use kernel and initrd from /boot/x86_64/loader/ from the installation media. I can imagine that it works to install an openSUSE 11.1 with SLES11 components, because it's the same codebase but it's not recommended -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
