Yes, be way of creating a "patch disk", which in esence consists of duplicating the directory structure in the ftp server. I think this is documented somewhere in the suse site or the unoficial suse faq. Was, at least.
Carlos thanks. How much of the directory structure, to wit, which directory and its entire contents in the ftp server should I duplicate on my disk? Perhaps ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/suse/i386/update/9.3?
Sorry, I don't remember right now, I haven't done it for a year or more. But as I say, it is documented somewhere (www.suse.de/en, probably) and has been comented here, in this list. Search for local update server, or patch/update disk.
Shriramana, I suggest you look at the SUSE Support knowledgebase http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/index.html it is a great resource relating to problems with the different versions of SuSE. I think you may find the information here. How To Create a Patch CD http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2004/09/fhassel_patchcd.html -- Regards, Graham Smith
