Hi List,

For a SLES9 install tree:
> blanked out the "\t" from the files yast/instorder; yast/order.
I was thinking about this and the tab characters should probably be in
those two files.  Someone pointed out earlier that the correct fix is
probably to use "echo -e" so escaped characters (\t) are expanded.  I made
that small change to http://mikemacisaac.com/mksles9root. (tested running
the script, but not installing from the resulting tree yet)

I haven't updated the PDF I put out earlier because there is a bigger
issue of how to integrate SP1 into a SLES9 install tree.

On the SLES9 SP1 CD1 there is a file named "Notes" and it includes the
section "5.3.1 Integrating the Service Pack into an installation server".
I started the process of how to merge SLES9 and SP1 but it is not at all
intuitive and the yast prompts that I see are different from what is
described.

What would be easier is to put together an install tree with SLES9 and SP1
merged from the start. Does anyone know if it is possible to simply merge
the (2 + 4) CDs:
  SP1 CD1
  SP1 CD2
  CD3
  CD4
  CD5
  CD6

If so, I could update the mksles9root script. Or, must the more complex
and thinly described steps in 5.3.1 (above) be followed in order to create
a properly merged install tree?  Thanks.
