Hi,

I go to the download page and get SLES12SP1 for i86\_64. On the page I see  
the registration code. (I am logged in to SUSE, if this is neccessary.)

After the install in a VM w/o registration (belongs to the proxy\*) I try to  
register with ‘yast scc’. But I get a message similar to ‘Unkown  
registration code’.

How is the correct way to install SLES12-Eval including registration to get  
the lastest patches?

\*During the installation it is not possible to register because there is no  
possibility to configure a proxy. Maybe this could be a remark during a beta  
test 😉

Bernd

the last time I tried (with a production key, not eval), I had to register the key at [scc.suse.com](http://scc.suse.com) before using that same key during server registration. Sorts of an pre-activation… I hadn’t have to do so with earlier installs, so things may have changed either in SCC or in SLES12.

Regards,  
Jens
