openSUSE starting aid

[Thomas Lange]

Hi Frank,

you need to write a hook repository.OPENSUSE. Have a look at
repository.CENTOS which might be a good example. This will make the
repository of the opensuse packages available.

For installing package you just slightly modified files in
package_config. But instead of PACKAGES install you can use PACKAGES zypper.
install_packages -H shows all available names and the commands that
are executed.

If the package installation is working, you have to adjust the
customization scripts to do the things an opensuse system needs.

Hope this helps. Do not hesitate to also ask on irc.


P.S.: The german comapny Tuxedo has a FAI based installer called
WebFAI. It downloads the config space from
https://webfai.tuxedocomputers.com/webfai-pc/fai_config.tgz

which already includes config and scripts for SUSE.
