If the virtual NIC definition in the CP directory includes the correct VLAN specification and is defined as an access port on the VSWITCH, the installation system shouldn't know (or care) that VLANs are present.
Your old method should work fine. A refinement that might be handy if you are going to do a lot of guest installs is to set up a guest running squid as a HTTP proxy and use the HTTP installation method instead of FTP. The first install will take a while, but the 2nd and subsequent installs can be done from the squid cached copies, which will speed things up dramatically. It also gives you a really good look at what's going on inside the installer in terms of what files are used, etc. David Boyes Sine Nomine Associates > Will > the SLES10 inital boot kernal allow for VLAN enabling the install kernal > to communicate with the installation FTP Server?
