3 Select Tools > Create Reference Control File to prepare AutoYaST to mirror the
current system configuration into an AutoYaST profile.
4 As well as the default resources, like boot loader, partitioning, and software se-
lection, you can add various other aspects of your system to the profile by
checking the items in the list in Create a Reference Control File.
5 Click Create to have YaST gather all the system information and write it to a
new profile.
6 To proceed, choose one of the following:
• If the profile is complete and matches your requirements, select File > Save
as and enter a filename for the profile, such as autoinst.xml.
• Modify the reference profile by selecting the appropriate configuration aspects
(such as "Hardware/Printer") from the tree view to the left and clicking
Configure. The respective YaST module starts but your settings are written
to the AutoYaST profile instead of applied to your system. When done, select
File > Save as and enter a suitable name for the profile.
7 Leave the AutoYaST module with File > Exit.
