Hi,

(I'm new here. I have looked for answers to the following, but seem
not to know where to find them. Please be gentle...)


I am building an openSUSE Leap 42.3 OEM image that, when installed,
runs YaST firstboot stuff. I have done this for quite a few openSUSE
releases without a problem. But I am having difficulty with doing so
in Leap 42.3. I have discussed my issues with the KIWI folk, and they
are of the opinion the the issue is YaST. Or, my use of it.

These are the kind of issues I am encountering (not in order of importance):

1. It insists on being in character mode. I think I have all the
X11/QT stuff installed. So I do not know why this happens.

2. It starts out by saying that /etc/ntp.conf cannot be written.
Initially I did not have ntp installed. But then it failed
immediately. Why it is trying to do anything with NTP before, say, I
have configured the network, is a mystery.

3. It fails to run inst_hostname. I get an error and it says to let
the YaST folk know. Then it dies.

4. At one point it shows a screen (so fast that I almost do not see
what it says) that says Analyzing System. Then it immediately shuts
down the system. Not a crash. But a proper shutdown.

So I am not sure if the problem is my firstboot script, or some
missing packages.

Where to start? I can provide my firstboot script. Or information on
installed packages.

Help!
