Hi,
Has someone managed to burn all SLES9 CDs plus SP2 CDs on one DVD and
made this as installation source so that one doesn't have to play disk
jockey during installation?
My first approach of taking the source from the installation server failed:
- Copy all SLES9 CDs in one directory /export/suse/i386/sles9sp2
- Copy all SLES9 SP2 CDs into the same directory
- Remove all src RPMs in the src directory
- Change dir to /export/suse/i386/sles9sp2/suse
- Run create_package_descr
- Create bootable ISO file with
mkisofs -A "SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 SP2" \
-l -r -T -J -pad -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table \
-b boot/loader/isolinux.bin \
-c boot/boot.catalog \
-hide boot/boot.catalog \
-hide-joliet boot/boot.catalog \
-input-charset default \
-V "SLES9SP2" \
-o "/tmp/sles9sp2-i386-dvd.iso" \
/export/suse/i386/sles9sp2
- Burn the ISO file onto DVD
cdrecord-dvd dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 speed=8 -eject -sao /tmp/sles9sp2-i386-dvd.iso
The DVD was bootable but then it complained that I should insert the
first product CD. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance for help.
Regards,
Bernd
