Default SLES driver.img installation not successful from pxeboot srv

Hi All,

I am trying to automating the SAS/SATA driver installation while OS installation from pxeboot server. For that I have configured PXEboot server(DHCPD,NFS,HTTPD,etc).

My ultimate aim is to install the SAS/SATA driver automatically from network share.

RHEL automatic installation is sucessful with my PXEBoot server. But SLES I am facing the problem like I can't install the driver file(adpinv.img - SAS/SATA driver).

Please find the pxelinux.cfg/default file for automatic OS and driver installation.

file

default 0

timeout 5
prompt 1

display boot.msg

kernel RHEL46x86/vmlinuz
append initrd=RHEL46x86/initrd.img ks=http://192.168.9.1/ks_rhel4qu6.cfg ksdevice=eth0 dd=http://192.168.9.1/adpinv.rhel4qu6.i686.img method=nfs:192.168.9.1:/data/rhel46x86 ramdisk_size=8192

append initrd=SLES10x86/initrd autoyast=http://192.168.9.1/autoinst10x86.xml install=nfs://192.168.9.1/data1/SLES10x86 hostip=192.168.9.20 netmask=255.255.255.0


I can't install the driver file(img file) automatically in SLES. In RHEL, I used dd=http://192.168.9.1/adpinv.rhel4qu6.i686.img, it takes the driver from http server and my installation was succeded.

Please help me out to solve this issue. How to give driver(img file) input in SLES pxeboot configuration?

Thanks,
Sathish
