Good Day,
We are going to be using SLES 12 server soon. As per our RHEL Servers
and a kickstart file, we are wanting to do the same with the SLES
Servers. I have created an autoyast file and stored it on a web server.
The path is reachable.
I boot off the ISO and then give the following boot options :
-autoyast2=http://xx.xx.x.xx/sles/sles12sp2-autoinstall.xml-
It however stalls with the following after getting an IP Address via
DHCP :
-Loading http://xx.xx.x.xx/sles/sles12sp2-autoinstall.xml - -[/color]
Any more details on the error? Does it successfully get an IP address,
DNS servers (if needed), and a default gateway? Is the netmask set
appropriately? When this happens are you able to switch o a console
(Ctrl+Alt+F2) yet, and if so can you successfully ping or otherwise test
access to the install source? Is this a VM, or can you otherwise trace
the LAN/wire in order to see if the connection to the AutoYaST file works
properly?
Is this really just SLES 12, or are you using SP2 while you’re at it?

Good luck.

Ok … apologies, was SLES 12 SP2. What I have done is as follows :
[LIST]
[]switched from autoyast2 to autoyast with the ifcfg component.
[]dvd as installation source
[*]http to https for path to xml file
[/LIST]
It fails to find xml file but then popup prompts to check / change path. I switch from https to http … works. Workaround, but works.
