This is fron my script: cd LOCATIONOFCD echo "SUPER" > media.1/media echo ` date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S` >>media.1/media echo "1" >>media.1/media ls -A1 > directory.yast cd suse /opt/kde3/share/apps/krpmview/create_package_descr -x setup/descr/EXTRA_PROV -l english -l spanish -l french -l german -l czech -l hungarian -l italian cd .. rm INDEX.gz ls-lR.gz ls -lR > ls-lR gzip ls-lR find . > INDEX gzip INDEX hope this helps Andreas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
