| I am running a SuSE Linux box that is not connected to a network. Therefore, the YaST Online Updater (YOU) doesn't work. Looking at Yast, it appears that it's possible to bring the updates to the machine via a CD. I have downloaded the patch rpms (in most case, some are full rpms) and put them on a CD. When I run the Patch CD Update tool in YaST I get an error that it couldn't find a directory path. Is there a document or other source of info that describes what a patch CD needs to look like to work with YOU? In the absence of this, how do I know the order of installation of the 60 or so rpms that I downloaded? Thanks for the help. |
