RE: FC6 - How to update packages on kickstart server

["Shabazian, Chip" <Chip Shabazian bankofamerica com>]

I haven't played with the respins (just saw them yesterday here at the Red Hat summit), but they should work just like the primary distribution where you simply replace the install tree with the one on the respin.

 

BTW, there was a very interesting new product presented in the same session called revisor that will help you spin your own.  You can search for it on the unity site, and it will soon work with RHEL.

>From what I read, it seems like re-spins only work for ISO 
images.  My server actually has all the RPMs rather than the ISO 
images.  Can re-spins work for the RPMs also?  I have installed jigdo 
and downloaded the latest re-spin but am unsure of how to 
proceed.

Sorry, but I don't find anything dealing with my problem on FedoraUnity.org.  Can you be more specific?

Hello -

I am new to kickstart.  I am setting up a kickstart server for Fedora Core 6.  I have all the RPMs from the original ISO images on my server.  I'd like to update the packages on the server so users don't always need to update packages immediately after install.  What is the best way to update the RPMs on my server?

Regards,
Andy
