Unable to set the server to download the sets with autoinstall
Hello, I'm trying to use autoinstall with OpenBSD 5.5 but the Server line in the configuration file is not read set according to the install.conf and instead is used for the ntp server. Here is my install.conf file: System hostname = testbsd Password for root = $2a$06$8APgDGjoEAAq85b3S.QZzer...dmiwcummDpa Start sshd(8) by default = yes Start ntpd(8) by default = yes Do you expect to run the X Window System = no Change the default console to com0 = no Which speed should com0 use = 19200 Setup a user = conostix Password for user = $2a$06$6IqO/zjUnFgrsI76g2/be.../YWDIA3T/mGdO What timezone are you in = Europe/Luxembourg Location of sets = http Server = 192.168.42.1 Server directory = plop And in the ai.log file, I have: NTP server? (hostname or 'default') [default] 192.168.42.1 And at the end of the log: Let's install the sets! HTTP/FTP proxy URL? (e.g. 'http://proxy:8080', or 'none') [none] none (Was not able to get ftplist from ftp.openbsd.org, but that is OK) Server? (hostname or 'done') Question has no answer in response file. The install.conf retrieved by the installer is the same as the one on the web server (checked with the installer shell). Thank you for your help. -- Xavier Claude cont...@xavierclaude.be

Thank you for your help. -- Xavier Claude cont...@xavierclaude.be Since the 'NTP Server' question contains 'Server', it will match the install.conf question, and since the NTP question comes first ... I think you will have to put a 'NTP Server = default' line in the install.conf, so it can be consumed before the 'Server' line is called for. Perhaps we should change 'Server?' to 'HTTP Server?' now that ftp is no longer an install method, thus allowing unambiguous selection. Ken
