I am getting an error during crowbar installation from web or shell (/opt/dell/bin/install-chef-suse.sh Âcrowbar)

SELS12 SP2 DVD media has been copied to directory Âsrv/tftpboot/suse-12.2/x86\_64/installÂ but still I am seeing this error.

Please check the steps in the installation guide.

Crowbar installation terminated prematurely. Please examine the above  
output or /var/log/crowbar/install.log for clues as to what went wrong.  
You should also check the Installation Manual, in  
particular the Troubleshooting section. Note that this script can  
safely be re-run multiple times if required.

Thanks,  
Ravi

I have not set this up with SLES 12 SP2, but that almost certainly wants  
wants the contents of the ISO, not the ISO itself, at that location. The  
easiest way is to leave the ISO where it is and then mount it onto its  
directory which is just fun:

```auto
sudo mount
/srv/tftpboot/suse-12.2/x86_64/install/SLES-12-SP2-x86_64-DVD1.iso
/srv/tftpboot/suse-12.2/x86_64/install/
```

This way the contents of the ISO can be individually retrieved, including  
whatever is needed to boot the system; otherwise the PXE-booting system  
would need to do this in addition to handle TFTP traffic and that’s just  
silly.

If you have been following the documentation to set this up please provide  
a URL and which steps you have followed so perhaps we can get SUSE to  
improve the steps to be clearer for others.

–  
Good luck.

Correct and the necessary commands are given in the section 5.1 of the  
SUSE OpenStack Cloud 7 Deployment Guide @  
[https://www.suse.com/documentation/suse-openstack-cloud-7/book\_cloud\_deploy/data/sec\_depl\_adm\_conf\_repos\_product.html](https://www.suse.com/documentation/suse-openstack-cloud-7/book_cloud_deploy/data/sec_depl_adm_conf_repos_product.html)
