BTW, SLES createrepo package is in the SLES SDK ISO.

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.

      ever tried to put some updated RPMs into the os repo, but the os
      installation will not recognize the updated RPMs.

      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).
