1) I'm looking for a clear way to add additional packages to the installation server. I found a solution using the post script (wget && rpm) but it would really better and more handy to have them direclty into the AutoYaST software package database.
Sort of difficult to get working.. but once you do, easy to keep updated and very slick integration.
From a previous answer I posted to the same question before:
Look in the archives of this list for many threads on this, i.e. subjs: [suse-autoinstall] Custom install source for yast in SLES9 [suse-autoinstall] How can I regularly update the install repository? I should document my setup when I have a chance.. this comes up so often. -- Mike Marion-Unix SysAdmin/Staff Engineer-http://www.qualcomm.com Joe: "I don't know, one minute we're spanking each other with meat, the next minute it got weird." --Wings

I wish everything were documented more clearly to begin with. On a SLES9 SP1 I'm trying to add a webwasher RPM to the install repository created with the Yast installation server function. I put the RPM into SUSE-CORE-9-CD1/suse/i586, and ran create_package_descr -x suse/setup/descr/EXTRA_PROV -d SUSE-CORE-9-CD1/suse Now if this were understandably documented. What the heck is EXTRA_PROV, and are the paths right? -- Great minds run in great circles.
