Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE SERVER 10 SP3 - ARCHITECTURE-SPECIFIC Supplementary Manual page 51

on current SUSE Linux Enterprise Server versions. Installation with SSH or
VNC is preferred.
To allow a connection between YaST and the remote X server, run xhost <IP
address> with the address of the installing machine on the remote machine.
For VNC, specify a password of six to eight characters to use for installation:
VNCPassword=<a password>
For SSH, specify a password of six to eight characters to use for installation:
SSHPassword=<a password>
A.2.4 Example Parmfiles
For an automatic installation with AutoYaST in an LPAR, it is preferable that the
parmfile has just one long line. If multiple lines are desired for readability, use blank
characters at the beginning and end of each line. The maximum number of lines in a
parmfile is 10.
To receive potential error messages on the console, use
linuxrcstderr=/dev/console
