Hi all... I've done this dozens (hundreds?) of times, and I've never seen this... Maybe I'm blurry-headed from looking at it too close, maybe I'm missing something obvious, but...
This is the first Linux at a new site. Brand new VM (w/ a Vswitch)... Downloading the bootstrap files goes fine. IPLing them goes fine all the way through the install prompts to where it says to connect via ssh and run yast. And even logging on to the Putty/ssh session goes fine. But when I invoke yast on the Putty session to I get: Unpacked extension disk... umount: /y2update: not mounted umount: /var/adm/mount: not mounted inst-sys:~ # I never get the "full screen" curses menues, and when it drops back to the inst-sys prompt, I also get a Putty pop-up saying "Server unexpectedly closed network connection." Over on the 3270 session I see: sshd 243: Received signal 15; terminating *** An error occurred during the installation. We initially had some network issues, so tonight I was over in the machine room to eliminate the questionable switch.. No change. Then I started looking at my virtual machine. Everything seems fine - 512M, NIC, MDISK, all just as I'd expect. And to be sure, I even tried running it with 1GB of storage... Same.. So I spent the time and downloaded new ISO images thinking some airport x-ray got too close. Same.. However the new ISOs included the updated SP3 CDs (...-CD1a.iso etc.). And they did kick out a little more info, though not much help... On the Putty session I now also see: /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/YaST2: line 373: 1357 Illegal instruction y2base "$modulename" $moduleargs qt $y2qt_args And on the 3270 it also shows: User process fault: interruption code 0x20001 Then shows the PSW, regs, etc... I did find one similar post on the web, but he was trying to use auto-yast and a large parm file. I have just the single record parmfile straight from the dist CDs. (And no one ever answered him.) And I'd like to say I can rule out the network, but... Is it something dumb I've overlooked being "too familiar"? Something anyone else has seen? Thanks for any thoughts...
