Can anybody recommend a guide as to how I'd go about incorporating SLES SP2 into a SLES9 repository? I'm about to image a number of servers, and ideally would have them all come up fully patched, and ready to go.
Thanks to Jared Ottley for the answer on this one : **************************************** 5.3.1 Integrating the Service Pack into an installation server -------------------------------------------------------------- The YaST2 install server module needs some bugfixes to be able to read and integrate Service Pack CDs. Thus please make sure you have at least version 2.9.21-0.0.1 of yast2-instserver installed (you will find such a newer package on the Service Pack CD itself). Then to the following steps: o Call YaST -> Misc -> Installation Server -> Change -> Edit o Enable the checkbox "Prompt for additional CDs (Service Packs, Additional Package CDs, etc.)" o Hit "Next" button o It will say that contents already exists in this directory o Hit "Ok" button o It will prompt for CD1 o Now insert the "Service Pack CD1" and hit "Continue" o The contents of Service Pack CD1 will be copied to the local disk o Proceed the same way when prompted for CD2 ****************************************** -- Michael T.
