openSuSE 12.1 & 12.2 - AutoYaST problems

Hello,

I’ve tried to use AutoYaST, but there were many problems and finally I was unable to login. OpenSuSE 12.1 & 12.2 Milestone 2 - both the same.

  1. After final configuration, this error shows (Search for …/YaST2/bin/y2base in /mnt failed)
    http://dl.dagoo.cz/chyba1.JPG

  2. Then, this error comes - Error during initrd creating:
    http://dl.dagoo.cz/chyba2.JPG
    Unable to install bootloader:
    http://dl.dagoo.cz/chyba3.JPG

  3. Even though I specified root password in autoyast.xml, there was no password set in summary screen. I set password manually, but after setup I was unable to log in - I entered root and “Wrong password” showed instantly.

My autoyast.xml - very minimalistic:

12.2 Milestone is still far from beta, let alone stable. Also, it would be nice if your pics would have english on them.
