Hello,

I have used Autoinst using NFS and FTP with SuSE Linux Version 7.1 a 
lot.  It worked great.  Now I'm starting to use YAST2 Autoinst to install 
SuSE Linux 8.1 on systems.  The first problem I encountered was an error 
message that no software packages could be found when I tried to create the 
first control file.  After reading about several fixes in this mailing list 
and installing them, that error disappeared.  I copied all of the SuSE 8.1 
CDs into one directory and then started the script create_package_descr to
recreate the package database.  I used the command without any 
parameters.  I expected to see a file called common.pkd in the directory
where I 
copied the CDs into after calling create_package_descr.  I didn't find it.
Is 
the file common.pkd no longer required?  When yes, what should be in the 
file common.pkd?


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards

James Orenchak
