That's what I want to do.

As I understand, I have to prepare a driver update medium of some form
(be it a directory in the network) to make the "DriverUpdate" linuxrc
parameter happen.

It's the newer version of the document you are referring to,
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Linuxrc, that refers to a description of the
"driver update medium" format,
http://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/hvogel/Update-Media-HOWTO/index.html. 

This document is not maintained anymore, and I simply want to save
myself the time preparing a "driver update medium" that nobody
understands. From what I see in
http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.3/, chances are high that things
have changed substantially in the meantime.

So, can somebody please shed some light on this?

Thanks,
Joerg
