Hello Mark,

Fine, it worked. Thank you for the addtional information. I have seen that
the registered type is ZYPP as the install resource but it works. So maybe
this is not relevant.

Allow me a small other question:
What I have seen is that my install image is trying to run suse_register and
can, as it does not have a connection to internet resolve the
secure-www.novell.com host. What do I have to do, to disable this? When I
disable the zmd service then it seems that I cannot update with my YUP
server.

Thanks a lot,

Regards,
Florian
