Michael,
This should be easy to fix.
What is happening is that cobbler is trying to figure out what OS
version it's running on, and it does this by looking for the
redhat-release package.
OK, I see.
Basically we just need to add some code to that function to make it
tolerate SLES and do the right thing. Right now the code in question
tolerates EL, Fedora, and Debian -- it just doesn't know about SuSE yet.
If you know Python and would like to volunteer to fix up cobbler so it's
installable on SLES, that's welcome, otherwise someone else with a SLES
box does need to take a look at this as I don't have one around.
Could you point me codes (or example) which is pointed to tolerate EL, Fedora and Debian?
I want to take a look at that codes.
We definitely do support SuSE as an install target and it would be nice
to see it installable there as well.
Yes, I know, but want to attempt to build on suse :)
Thanks a lot for your helps.
