• Parameter zum Booten

autoyast=default	Default auto-installation option
autoyast=file://<path>	Looks for control file in specified path (relative to source root directory, i.e. file:///autoinst.xml if in the top directory of a CD-ROM and you did an installation from CD)
autoyast=device://<device>/<file>	Looks for control file on a storage device. (only device name needed without full path, i.e. /dev/sda1 is wrong, instead use sda1). Since openSUSE 11.2 (not SLES11) you can leave out the device to trigger AutoYaST's search routine over all devices. (autoyast=device:///my.xml)
autoyast=floppy://<path>	Looks for control file in the floppy (Useful when booting from CD). Since SLES10 SP1 and later the fallback is looking on USB devices too
autoyast=nfs://<server>/<path>	Looks for control file on <server>
autoyast=http://[user:password@]<server>/<path>	Retrieves the control file from a web server using the HTTP protocol.
autoyast=https://[user:password@]<server>/<path>	Retrieves the control file from a web server using HTTPS (encrypted connection) protocol (possible since SL 10.1 and SLES10
autoyast=tftp://<server>/<path>	Retrieve the control file with TFTP
autoyast=ftp://[user:password@]<server>/<path>	Retrieve the control file with FTP
autoyast=usb://<path> (since SLES10 SP1)	Retrieve the control file from USB devices (autoyast will search on all USB devices it can find)
autoyast=relurl://<path> (since openSUSE 11.0)	Retrieve the control file from the installation source (install=....)
autoyast=slp (since openSUSE 11.2, not SLES 11)	Query the location of the profile from an SLP server (service:autoyast:...). Since openSUSE 11.3 you can add a "description=" attribute so you can "translate" the URL into something more readable
autoyast=cifs://<server>/<path> (since openSUSE 11.2, not SLES 11)	Looks for control file on <server> with CIFS
autoyast=label://<label>/<path> (since openSUSE 11.3, not SLES 11)	Looks for control file on a device that has the label
