Mark, Yes, it is a vendor who has taken sles11.3 and added his product on top. When you boot the cd it begins an OS installation that is specific to their needs - partitioning, specific rpms, etc. We would like to just do a "standard" OS only install with this cd. Why? Originally we installed this package successfully on a normal rack based dell server. However after implementing our required drivers for encrypting the drives we are unable to install the product. We have successfully installed a base RedHat OS and a Window OS to insure that the encryption is working correctly, we now need to see if it is sles or the vendor. On a side note, the sles11.3 iso DVD2 download will not fit on a DVD!

I sort of understand what you're asking, but not well enough to give a good answer. XML files are not executable, so that's part of my confusion. You say you have a vendor CD you want to install. How would that be done with AutoYaST? As an "add on product" in conjunction with a SLES OS install?
