Floppy
Specifies a location on a floppy. The floppy has to be inserted at boot time,
you will not be prompted to insert it if it is missing. The value has to start with
the string floppy followed by the path to the certificate. Example:
smtcert=floppy/smt/smt-ca.crt
local path
Absolute path to the certificate on the local machine. Example:
smtcert=/data/inst/smt/smt-ca.cert
Interactive
Use ask to open a pop-up menu during the installation where you can specify
the path to the certificate. Do not use this option with AutoYaST. Example
smtcert=ask
Deactivate certificate installation
Use done if either the certificate will be installed by an add-on product, or if
you are using a certificate issued by an official certificate authority. Example:
smtcert=done
WARNING: Beware of typing errors
Make sure the values you enter are correct. If smturl has not been specified
correctly, the registration of the update source will fail. If a wrong value for
smtcert has been entered, you will be prompted for a local path to the certifi-
cate.
In case smtcert is not specified, it will default to http://FQN/smt.crt with
FQN being the name of the SMT server.
