I've attached a ksh script that looks in the Updates directory of disk one of a RHEL release. It then copies a new version of an rpm in place of an older one in my custom build directory. It also saves the old file to a directory and updates any boot related files under isolinux, while ignoring my custom files like isolinux.cfg. Anyway, it was a quick and dirty script but works for my needs. You are welcome to start with it. Just remember you will need to rerun genhdlist after replacing the RPMS. To run: cd base_of_your_cd_build_area # Directory that isolinux and RedHat is in UpdateRPMS /cdrom/cdrom1 # where is the new CD root so it can find RedHat/Updates Good luck. --Dave -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Martin Rheumer Sent: Saturday, May 29, 2004 2:38 PM To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Updated RPMS. Peeps, Flame all you want, but I think 2 hours of searching the list might be enough especially if somone can flame me the FAQ section or any info would be appreciated. My dilema is simple. I am installing via kickstart on redhat ES 3.0 I want to add things like the new kernel and perl packages from a redhat update ( Redhat network subscribed ) to the original list of files in my http /Redhat/RPMS directory and get my fully functional kickstart routines to install them. 1. Is this possible ? 2. Has anyone got a how to handy. ? 3. Is this the right list to ask on ? Flame away if you think I didnt look hard enough, but kindly spam me the correct way to ask / look for this info.. Google is not my friend Thanks Martin _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
