in case this helps here is what the directory structure looks like for the update source: dist/ |-- updates | |-- content | |-- directory.yast | |-- media.1 | | |-- directory.yast | | |-- media | | `-- products | |-- packages | |-- packages.DU | |-- packages.en | `-- suse | |-- ppc64 | | |-- mx-1.2.8-6.ppc64.rpm | | |-- panfs-2.6.27.19-5-ppc64-mp-3.4.0-381771.23.sles_11_ppc64.rpm | | |-- pdsh-2.17-1.ppc64.rpm | | |-- pdsh-rcmd-rsh-2.17-1.ppc64.rpm | | `-- pdsh-rcmd-ssh-2.17-1.ppc64.rpm | `-- setup | `-- descr | |-- MD5SUMS | |-- directory.yast | |-- packages | |-- packages.DU | `-- packages.en `-- yast |-- instorder `-- order -----Original Message----- From: Salmon, Rene [mailto:salmr0@bp.com] Sent: Sun 3/29/2009 1:18 PM To: opensuse-autoinstall@opensuse.org Subject: [opensuse-autoinstall] steps to create an update source Hi, I have a few custom built RPMs that we would like to install on our SLES 11 and opensuse 11.1 machines via autoyast. I looked around the autoyast website and a few other lists and such and cant' quite get all the parts right to do this. For now I am simply trying to create the update source then I go to a SLES 11 machine and try to add that as a "Software Repository" just to test if the update source works. When I do this I get this error message: "No repository index in content file" Here are the steps I followed to create the update source:
create_update_source.sh dist/ mkdir -p dist/updates/suse/x86_64 cp *.rpm dist/updates/suse/x86_64/ cd dist/updates/suse/ create_package_descr -x setup/descr/EXTRA_PROV cd setup/descr/ create_directory.yast . create_md5sums .
last I edit the "dist/updates/content" file to look like this:
cat dist/updates/content VENDOR SuSE Linux AG CREATIONDATE 20090329125112 VERSION 1 LABEL My Software
Any ideas as to what I am missing in the creating of the update source that might cause the "No repository index in content file" error message?
