My best practise: I never mess around with the initial release. For an update i create an update repository and add a section within my autoinst.xml to point to this repository. During installation the stuff from the update will be used as well.

We have just downloaded the 1.2GB's of updates from ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/opensuse/update/12.3 that have been released since the release of 12.3. Is it possible to incorporate these updates onto the USB (or DVD) and get those installed in the initial installation? I have read the information at SUSE / Uwe Gansert / autoyast / autoinstall and used the tool "create_update_source.sh" which has added the updates folder to the USB pendrive but what do I have to do next to tell the install to use this update folder? Have been playing with autoyast and got a profile that nearly works so if it is something that gets added in the autoinst.xml, then that should be OK. I am aware of the ag_initscripts issue with autoyast as described here... [Bug 801878] AutoYast hangs at "Install Required Packages" and waits for. Any help or advise appreciated. Regards, Stephen.
