[sle-beta] installation by using the “SLE-15-Installer” and “SLE-15-Packages” isos (no network connection)

[Hering, Uwe]

Hello,

I used vmware workstation and provided the second iso via second CD/DVD device (checked that both devices are connected and powered on).

Booting into the rescue system both are visable without manual inverention and in correct order.

I will try to get some more infos.

Regards, Uwe

If this is the case, you could be more explicit when specifying the URL of your CD/DVD and point libzypp to the specific device, as documented here:

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Libzypp_URIs#CD.2FDVD

Alternatively, you can always put the contents of hte media on a local HTTP server.


In any case, it could be interesting to see the logs to find out what exactly happened during your installation...

HTH,
