[opensuse] Autoyast Installation 10.2

2007-09-17 Thread jeff garner
I have tried on three different occasions to do an FTP installation
using the autoinst file created from a base install image of
openSUSE10.2.  all three times it fails giving me an error that it
cannot find the profile on my FTP server.  I know that when I create a
file, then load it into the autoinstallation module of Yast, put in my
additional packages and change the root password I get that it is not a
valid xml file.  What is it about autoyast that is hosed that isn't
allowing a auto created xml file fail the validity check in yast?

Re: [opensuse] ncpfs and PAM configuration

David,

are you referring to the RH named files like auth-config, etc?  if you
can, look at examples of the RH files, there are the common- files in
SUSE that are similar.

Re: [opensuse] Autoyast Installation 10.2

2007-09-18 Thread jeff garner
Not really what I was talking about.  Sorry if I wasn't complete enough
on my problem.  I am installing openSUSE 10.2  at the end of the
installation I clone the system for autoyast installations.  When I open
Yast>misc>installations, I attempt to load, change then save the
autoinst.xml file under /root.  Yast gives me the error that the file
fails the validity test.  I attempt to load this file as my installation
source and it fails again, warning that it is not a valid installation
set.  Has anyone seen this?
