Is it possible to use the SP1 DVD for this? If so, how would the directory structure look. maybe just: <rep_dir>/sp1/cd1 with all the files from the dvd in the cd1 directory?

So yes, its very critical for autoyast. Anas Anthony Staples wrote:
Anas, OK, there are only two CDs for SP1. Then copy all files and directories
from these two cd's into /SP1/CD1 and /SP1/CD2, right?
<rep_dir>/driverupdate has some special significance to autoyast?
Just need a little more clarification to alleviate my ignorance!

Anthony,
The easiest way to integerate the service pack:
in your current repository (<rep_dir>)
create CD directories:
mkdir -p <rep_dir>/SP1/{CD1,CD2,CD3....} mkdir <rep_dir>/yast ln -sf SP1/CD1/driverupdate
echo "/SP1 /SP1" > yast/order echo "/" >> yast/order
echo "/SP1" > yast/instorder echo "/" >> yast/instorder

I am downloading sp1 cd's for Novell Linux Desktop. What is the best, easiest way to integrate these new packages into my existing repository? Is there a script available to do it, or do I have to start with a new repository?
I see that there is a checkbox in the autoyast repository "Source Configuration" window to "prompt for additional cds..." But when trying to edit the existing repository this is greyed out. I don't remember if it was greyed out when i created the repository.
