Now just make a tree for the files in /tmp/xsupdates/. Create a directory updates, populate it with rpms and run createrepo against it. If you wish to replace/add a file on the iso, just have them be in the same place in the xsupdates directory, as it would be on the iso. eg: xsupdates/ks.cfg xsupdates/isolinux/isolinux.cfg. Then call mkslim <path to iso> <output dir> /tmp/xsupdates Remember to add the repo line to the kickstart file or add them as a boot argument, for usb: repo --name=updates --baseurl=file:///mnt/isodir/updates for cdrom: repo --name=updates --baseurl=file:///mnt/stage2/updates The usb method is tested, while I have not tested the cdrom iso > > However, I see that the older buildinstall(s) are not present any > > more(?)!
