[opensuse-factory] Is it possible to use a DUD file as yast add-on product input ?
I have a DUD file previously generated by mkdud tool, and I am able to pass it either in a modified install iso or passed as DUD=xxx boot parameter to handle it during install phase. BUT, is it possible to use the DUD file as input for Yast add-on on an already installed machine ? I did not found an obvious way in yast add-on menu. -- Michel Normand -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

No, that's not possible. Steffen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

You can only extract the RPMs from the DUD which is a cpio.gz archive and add a repo from local RPMs or upload the RPMs to a repo server. zcat foo.dud | cpio -idmv E.g. replacing the kernel on the SUSE install ISO with mksusecd does it like this. Example call: sudo mksusecd --create SLE-12-SP3-Server-DVD-x86_64-bsc1040182.iso --initrd bsc1040182.dud --kernel for-iso/kernel-*.rpm --modules btrfs --addon for-iso/kernel-*.rpm --addon-name "kernel update for bsc#1040182" -- ./SLE-12-SP3-Server-DVD-x86_64-GM-DVD1.iso Cheers, Sebastian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
