I am trying to make a firstboot.xml file work. The biggest stumbling block is that I do not seem to find a description of what the various modules that firstboot.xml can call actually do.
/usr/share/doc/packages/yast2-firstboot/index.html (from yast2-firstboot), for example, has this to say about autoconfiguration: 1.2.6. Using Automatic Configuration Since openSUSE11.0, installer does most part of the system configuration automatically, without user interaction. This feature is also available in firstboot stage. If you have the system installed and only partially configured (e.g. because of different hardware on your computers), enable inst_automatic_configuration step in the firstboot workflow. In the "globals" section of your workflow description file (firstboot.xml), define the steps that should be part of the Automatic Configuration process. For detailed information, see "Automatic Configuration" section of /usr/share/doc/packages/yast2-installation/control-doc/index.html file, part of yast2-installation-devel-doc package. I cannot find a package called yast2-installation-devel-doc (or one that looks like it may be a renamed package). The file /usr/share/doc/packages/yast2-installation/control-doc/index.html does not seem to exist in another package. The biggest problem I have is the Network stuff. No matter what the firstboot screen shows as the enabled steps, nothing related to networking is ever asked. Same thing for setting the Desktop. I am working through error messages in logs. But as I am using qemu this is a sloooow process. Surely the firstboot modules are documented somewhere? Not generically how to call them. But specifically what each one does or requires. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] To contact the owner, e-mail: [email protected]
