I would like to get a better handle on the SUSE oss and non-oss repositories. Are these static ?
Yes
If so are they identical to the installation media? Meaning, if I put the installation ISO image on my harddrive and point YaST installation sources to it is their any purpose in pointing to the above repositories? The oss repository that's available from servers on the internet has more packages than what is available on the CD/DVD ISOs.
It indeed makes sense to also add the internet repositories to YaST2's list of installation sources.
Thanks! One more question. If I purchase the Commercial DVD-9 release of 10.2 then is this the same as the repositories or is there still a benefit to pointing to them?
Even the DVD has less packages than the internet repository. (the "commercial" DVD is exactly the same as the DVD ISO you can download on the internet) So, yes, even when you have the DVD, it still makes sense to add the internet repositories. cheers - -- -o) Pascal Bleser http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ /\\ <pascal.bleser@skynet.be> <guru@unixtech.be> _\_v The more things change, the more they stay insane. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFmRxor3NMWliFcXcRAqFiAJ9aVIkwQEFHimQWa3AD8ApmYRqShQCfS3dl rCE8MhZgDrQQsl1HBBERLv0= =K/uu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
