When you say you're able to mount "the mountpoint" do you mean /install/penguin, or /install/penguin/SLES/sles12sp2/dvd1 ?

Re: Installing SLES12 SP2 can't access repository
Thanks Mauro, Mark, Alan and everyone.. Mark, My parm file has these lines: Install=nfs://ipaddress/install/penguin/SLES/sles12sp2/dvd1 UseSSH=1 SSHPassword=12345678 upgrade=1 nfsopts=tcp,vers=3,nolock The /etc/exports on the nfs server has this line: /install/penguin -vers=3,sec=sys:none,rw And I'm able to mount the mountpoint successfully from this client before kicking off the install script. NFS version is 3. Alan, I opened a ticket a few weeks ago. The latest thing they said to me, today, is to try is just using a dvd. Mauro, I tried using http today instead and it worked‼ I'm so happy I can move on. Thanks again everyone!

That's why I typically recommend _not_ using NFS. It's very difficult to get any debugging information out of it compared to FTP or HTTP. What are you specifying in the parameter file? What does the /etc/exports file on the NFS server have in it? What version of NFS is running on the NFS server?

Installing SLES12 SP2 can't access repository
Back in April you all talked about a problem someone had installing SLES12 sp2, zvm 6.4, using FTP. Several people recommended burning the iso to dvd and installing from that. One person said they created a symbolic link to the mounted .iso in the ftp user's home directory. I'm using an NFS mount. Before starting the yast.ssh script to do the install, I can access the mount and its data just fine. I run the yast.ssh script and it fails with the same error some of you had in the April chat - mount.nfs access denied trying to access the repository. Has anyone gotten an NFS mounted install to work after having this problem? I'm not seeing any errors logged on the NFS server.
