But I don't have the retail DVDs (yet - only ordered) as they don't ship
until the 26th.

so there's a drbd-kmp-pae ? I don't see a kernel-pae package on that
repository, yes, talk about confusing...

yes, I've read Kiwi docs before and attempted it, got thoroughly confused
and frustrated.
there's a custom build service as well that seems a little bit simpler, but
haven't tried it yet.
still, need the packages before I can roll my own, using that repository
link with the opensuse download might do the trick.

it'd be nice if they explained simply how you could take a system you have
installed and setup and turn THAT into an image that you can use as a live
dvd/install disk without having to do all sorts of weird things with xml
files...

or wait 7 days until my order arrives and do it then, but we're trying to
build systems here now

thanks for your help.
Dan.
