bootloader configuration failed in autoinstallation
Last modified: 2005-12-19 14:21:34 UTC
This is part of a split up of bug #135382 Problem varies depending on version (S93, S10). When doing a PXE-booted installation, autoyast does not function properly if the autoyast XMl config is not specified in the initrd. Using this config: (pxelinux config:) LABEL suse10-TEST MENU LABEL TEST -- (network install) Install SuSE 9.3 from SuSE 10 from autoyast config KERNEL boot_images/OS/SING/suse10-install/linux APPEND initrd=boot_images/OS/SING/suse10-install/initrd-test ramdisk_size=131072 server=endor info=file:/info.ilm autoyast=http://adroit/~estair/autoyast.desktop.sda.SING hostname= (info file-info.ilm:) textmode=1 splash=verbose nameserver=10.66.1.108 InstMode=nfs Serverdir=/san/dept/sio/linux/os/suse/9.3/dist (linuxrc.config:) KernelPCMCIA: 1 UseUSBSCSI: 1 Product: SUSE Linux UpdateDir: /linux/suse/x86_64-9.3 MemLoadImage: 204800 MemYaST: 92000 MemYaSTText: 64000 InstallDir: /boot/inst-sys64 RescueImage: /boot/rescue64 RootImage: /boot/root-suse10 ModuleDisks: 0 With this setup the installations continues up until the bootloader, after which it fails for some unspecified reason (not running y2debug=1 at that point). Grub IS present in the mounted image, but menu.lst is not written correctly according to the xml.
please attach the autoyast profile you use and the /var/log/YaST2/y2log file
please provide the information or I'll close the bug since it works fine for me
works for me
