Re: Installation repository

Hi Peer,

1. Copy the SLES-11-SP3 repository from DVD to $REPO and replace/add
    your packages below $REPO/suse/*/ as you need.

2. Update the package metadata:

    #> create_package_descr -d $REPO/suse -o $REPO/suse/setup/descr

    (create_package_descr is part of the inst-source-utils package)

3. Remove all "META SHA1 .... packages*" lines from $DIR/content and

4. add the new hashs to the same file:

    #> (cd $REPO/suse/setup/descr && sha1sum packages* | \
        while read LINE; \
        do echo META SHA1 $LINE;done ) >> $REPO/content

At this point you can install manually, but you will get disturbed by
signature and security warnings, which you have to commit.

5. Configure the signature handling in your AutoYaST profile:

  <general>

    ...

     <signature-handling>
       <accept_unsigned_file
        config:type="boolean">true</accept_unsigned_file>
       <accept_file_without_checksum
        config:type="boolean">true</accept_file_without_checksum>
       <accept_verification_failed
        config:type="boolean">true</accept_verification_failed>
       <accept_unknown_gpg_key
        config:type="boolean">true</accept_unknown_gpg_key>
       <import_gpg_key config:type="boolean">true</import_gpg_key>
     </signature-handling>
   </general>

6. Install with "autoyast=<theprofile>    insecure=1".

Regards, Oliver
