Can anyone give a rough estimate of the DASD space required to hold all
of the maintenance for 'GA SP1 SP2' of SLES10? Having read Mark's
article on setting up a maintenance mirror, I am interested in trying
it, but do not want to be in the run it, increase space, run it,
increase space, run it, repeat until complete mode.

I think I figured this one out.  At least this is what it took for my
yup server to get it to grap SP2+ as well.
Try updating /etc/sysconfig/yup like this:
YUP_SUBVERSIONS="GA SP1 SP2"

Or maybe better:
YUP_SUBVERSIONS="SP1 SP2"

That didn't work for me without modifying the yup script itself.  To avoid 
having a number of people spend some amount of time doing just that, might I 
draw your attention to the Subscription Management Tool that was announced in 
the SP2 press release: 
http://www.novell.com/news/press/novell-delivers-suse-linux-enterprise-10-enhancements-in-service-pack-2

It's the second paragraph, and it's intended to be a _supported_ replacement 
for YUP, as well as having far more functionality.  I don't believe it is 
available for download yet, contrary to the verbiage in the press release, but 
if not, it should be within a couple of weeks.
