Hi,

I try to create one single NFS Source for autoinstallation and Yast for installed systems. I followed 6.1.3 in the autoyast manual. I can select my NFS repository in "Change source of installation" but I am not able to search for packages. There seems to be nothing in it. e.g. rsync. The system was installed manually.

You have to add UL and SLES sources as different sources. For example, if you have followed the instruction in 6.1.3 you will have an NFS mounted directory with "ul" and "sles8" (might be with other names of course) sub-directories. You have to add those seperatly, i.e. first source will be <server ip>/exports/sles8/sles/CD1 and source 2 will be <server ip>/exports/sles8/ul/CD1 /exports/sles8 is where both UL and SLES have been copied as described in 6.1.3.

Where do I put additional packages (rpms) which came not with SLES8 or update-packeges from the MW?

You can put them in either SLES or UL, but make sure there are no duplicates and remove older versions. When adding new packages, you have to create the package database as described in in the manual for autoyast. Anas
