Hi Phil,

Thanks for your quick reply.
Yes, I'm using the Base Channel when a new server is creating with a Kickstart 
Script define on Spacewalk. In that way all is fine and desired packages are 
installed.

I didn't think that the problem is regarding the tree?

Now, for some specifics servers we need specifics repos for particular 
application. My question is : is it possible to insert this particular repo 
during a new kickstart installation? Hope that my question is more 
understandable?

Thanks and best regards,
Jérôme

Hi Jerome

I've been using Spacewalk to patch systems for a little while but only started 
to look in to provisioning with Spacewalk more recently.

However, if I understand your question properly, the Base Channel is set when 
creating a Kickstart Distribution. Subsequently, this is where the packages 
will come from for installation.

Note, unlike Satellite, Spacewalk does NOT make the OS disk structure 
(Kickstart Tree) required for installation - this needs to be performed as a 
separate task. The Tree Path, within Kickstart Distribution, should be set to 
whatever location you download these to.

As Spacewalk is utilising Kickstart/Koan and Cobbler, under the covers, I 
believe there'll be other ways of achieving the same thing, in an even more 
automated way, though.

Regards
Phil

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] specific repo to a server with kickstart

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have an idea if it is possible with kickstart (Spacewalk) to define 
once a specific repo on a server during his creation?

Thanks and best regards,
Jerome
