Hostname=s390zvm01.suse.de HostIP=10.11.134.65
TIP: Using IPv6 during the Installation
By default you can only assign IPv4 network addresses to your machine. To
enable IPv6 during installation, enter one of the following parameters at the
bootprompt: ipv6=1 (accept IPv4 and IPv6) or ipv6only=1 (accept IPv6

Some of the following parameters are required. If they are missing, the automatic process
pauses and asks for the value interactively.

At the very end of the installation of a system you can check Clone This System
for Autoyast. This creates a ready-to-use profile as /root/autoinst.xml
that can be used to create clones of this particular installation. To create an
autoinstallation file from scratch or to edit an existing one, use the YaST module
