Does SLES9 SP2 superceed SP1? OR do I need SP1 applied before SP2 on a
*new* SLES9 system?

I see the messages from the mksles9root script that it foudn SP2 CD images
and built them into the install tree. Just was surprised it's not
programmed to include SP1 as well.

I started out with:

.                              SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-GM-CD3.iso
SLES-9-s390-RC5a-CD1.iso  SLES-9-s390x-RC5a-CD1.iso
..                             SLES-9-s390-RC5-CD2.iso
SLES-9-s390x-RC5-CD2.iso  mksles9root.sh
SLES-9-SP-1-s390x-RC5-CD1.iso  SLES-9-s390-RC5-CD3.iso
SLES-9-s390x-RC5-CD3.iso
SLES-9-SP-1-s390x-RC5-CD2.iso  SLES-9-s390-RC5-CD4.iso
SLES-9-s390x-RC5-CD4.iso
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-GM-CD1.iso   SLES-9-s390-RC5-CD5.iso
SLES-9-s390x-RC5-CD5.iso
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-GM-CD2.iso   SLES-9-s390-RC5-CD6.iso
SLES-9-s390x-RC5-CD6.iso

In the directory I built to hold all of the CD images.

I also see that it built a directory sles9root but it's containign broken
symbolic links

drwxr-xr-x    6 root     root         4096 Aug  8 10:27 ./
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 Aug  8 10:27 ../
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           14 Aug  8 10:27 boot ->
sles9/CD1/boot
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           17 Aug  8 10:27 content ->
sles9/CD1/content
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           21 Aug  8 10:27 control.xml ->
sles9/CD1/control.xml
drwxr-xr-x    7 root     root         4096 Aug  8 10:26 core9/
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           22 Aug  8 10:27 driverupdate ->
sp2-9/CD1/driverupdate
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           15 Aug  8 10:27 linux ->
sp2-9/CD1/linux
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           17 Aug  8 10:27 media.1 ->
sles9/CD1/media.1
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 Aug  8 10:26 sles9/
drwxr-xr-x    5 root     root         4096 Aug  8 10:26 sp2-9/
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Aug  8 10:27 yast/


None of the symbolic links are 'working' because the sles9/CD1 directory is
empty.

Is that supposed to be that way and you just mount the CD manually at that
point?
