Install the package
inst-source-utils
. Then, change your working direc-
tory to your network installation source.
5
Run the command
$HOME/bin/create_update_source.sh /srv/ftp
.
6
Copy all updated packages to the directory
/srv/ftp/updates/suse/
<arch>/
.
7
Run the following commands to make all the new packages known to the instal-
lation source:
cd /srv/ftp/updates/suse;
perl /usr/bin/create_package_descr -x setup/descr/EXTRA_PROV
8
Create the checksums needed for the installation process with the commands:
cd /srv/ftp/updates/suse/setup/descr
for i in *; do echo -n "META SHA1 "; \
sha1sum $i|awk '{ORS=""; print $1}'; \
echo -n " "; basename $i; done >> /srv/ftp/updates/content
After this procedure, the packages that are copied to the updates directory are available
during the installation. However, they will only be used if they are newer than the
packages provided by the installation itself.
Note, that in order to use a new kernel during the installation, you must also create an
appropriate
installation initrd
as it is found in
/srv/ftp/boot/
.
6.4 Windows Virtual Machines
The installation of Windows virtual machines is supported by the virtual machine
manager. To install a Windows VM Guest, select the respective system from the list
provided there.
To get the best available support for Windows systems, install the driver pack. For more
information about this, see
Section 7.5, “SUSE Drivers for Windows on Xen”
(page 81).
