Unable to set runlevel using autoyast installation
Last modified: 2005-12-20 15:15:44 UTC
OpenSuSE 10.0 Reproducible on multiple machines Unable to set the runlevel from the default runlevel 5 to runlevel 3. I have tried both formats that supposedly should work: <runlevels> <default>3</default> </runlevels> <runlevel> <default>3</default> </runlevel> I have tried them together and separately but no permutation works. Does not work in any of my configurations, server or desktop. My current workaround is to have confirm turned on, then fix it in the GUI before proceeding with installation, but that makes the autoinstall process less useful! thanks, edgar nielsen DHAPDigital
please report bugs for "SUSE Linux 10.0 OSS" against "SUSE Linux 10.0"
Please attach the YaST logfiles.
Created attachment 61391 [details] yast log files
Created attachment 61392 [details] autoyast config file
OK, here are the attached yast logs as a compressed tarball. I did not manually touch the runlevel, I let it get set by autoyast. Here is what got set: grep default /etc/inittab # The default runlevel is defined here id:3:initdefault: Hmmm, that is interesting! The Yast installation GUI said the runlevel will be 5, even though I had said 3 in my autoyast config file. Perhaps the bug is that the GUI doesn't reflect the settings in the autoyast config file for runlevels? Or is it getting set to 3 because my installation does not have any X installed? Will have to run a test on a desktop autoinstall. Also attached is my yast xml file, albeit with passwords and such modified for security..... thanks, edgar nielsen
Indeed, it looks like it works correctly with my desktop autoyast, but it is not reflected in the autoyast gui. I'll let ya'll decide if that is a bug in autoyast/yast or if just a matter for documentation. edgar nielsen
