Anas, By manage I mean running autoyast2 to create and maintain the XML files, and getting a hands off build of a workstation. The importing I was speaking of is in the autoyast2 tool doing package selection(Software->Package Selection) Trying to get the base selection from the JDS images I have copied on my hard drive, I was trying to get the GUI to see the JDS packages instead of SuSE9 packages. Thanks for looking at this.

Hi, I have a lot of experience using jumpstart and Solaris, just starting at looking at SuSE autoyast2 for installing Sun-JDS (SuSE8.1 variant). Is it possible to have a SuSE 9.0 server to manage the JDS installs? I have read the majority of the HowTo's and documentation, I just am not finding an answer. It depends how you define "manage". In general an installation server can be anything, even a windows machine can server as an installation server.
And when I try to import a package list from JDS software I get "Error loading package list from /..."
Importing where? I dont understand what are you trying to do here.
