Hi, To start, in my previous email i forgot to mention i was trying to do this with the SuSE 9.2 Professional install. After trying to follow specifications from http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/9.1/html/CreateProfile.Software.html on how to add some custom rpms, i get other issues of importing the selection. Here is the errors from the log i found: --------------------------------------------------------------------- 2005-01-23 21:43:12 <1> host(28208) [qt-pkg] YQPackageSelector.cc(pkgImport):995 Importing package list from /suse/suse/setup/descr/Custom-0.0.1.noarch.sel 2005-01-23 21:43:12 <3> host(28208) [PMPackageImEx] PMPackageImEx.cc(readFrom):109 Illegal magic for PackageImEx at pos 0: "# SuSE-Linux-Package-Selection 9.2-62.noarch -- (c) 2004 SuSE Linux AG" 2005-01-23 21:43:12 <5> host(28208) [PMPackageImEx] PMPackageImEx.cc(doImport):801 Don't know how to handle Packa geImEx EDITION-UNSPEC 2005-01-23 21:43:12 <3> host(28208) [PMPackageImEx] PMPackageImEx.cc(doImport):539 Error reading file '/suse/suse/setup/descr/Custom-0.0.1.noarch.sel' (__F_) 2005-01-23 21:43:12 <2> host(28208) [qt-pkg] YQPackageSelector.cc(pkgImport):1008 Error reading package list from /suse/suse/setup/descr/Custom-0.0.1.noarch.sel 2005-01-23 21:43:22 <1> host(28208) [qt-ui] YQUI_builtins.cc(runPkgSelection):96 Package selection done - returni ng `cancel --------------------------------------------------------------------- Here are the contents of the Custom-0.0.1.noarch.sel file: --------------------------------------------------------------------- # SuSE-Linux-Package-Selection 9.2-62.noarch -- (c) 2004 SuSE Linux AG # Needs parser version 4.0 or greater # generated on Wed Oct 6 12:04:16 UTC 2004 =Ver: 4.0 =Sum: Custom =Sum.de: Custom =Sum.en: Custom =Cat: addon =Vis: true =Ord: 108 +Ins: mterm_fonts oracle-instantclient-basic oracle-instantclient-jdbc oracle-instantclient-sqlplus -Ins: --------------------------------------------------------------------- The files are located in the /suse/suse/custom directory.
