Updating the repo is fairly simple (at least for redhat flavors). You just need to re-run "createrepo ." from the repo directory. Be sure to pass it the group file when running createrepo.

Your mileage may vary with SLES, but I believe off the top of my head it is the same steps.

If we simply put the updated kernel RPM into the os packages directory, I do not think it will work. The os repo information needs to be updated too, updating the os repo info is not so easy, we have ever tried to put some updated RPMs into the os repo, but the os installation will not recognize the updated RPMs.

Thanks,

Have you considered just adding the update kernel packages into the main
OS repo? You can then specify in the .pkglist file to use the new kernel
versions during install (although it should use the newer ones by default).
