Yes I think you're right but I don't know the difference between the
UPDATE directory and the PACKAGES-directory.

I tried to build a custom CD last week and changed the ISO from
pkg.nl.cobalt.com with the shareware-tool "WinISO". I placed the
latest updates and OpenSSH etc. in the dir
\NFSROOT_X86\BTO_SYNC\PRODUCTION\3001R_1.84\PACKAGES and changed
RELEASE_SPEC.3001R so the last lines look like

# These are the patches and updates to install
%begin Packages
RaQ4-All-System-0.0.1-7657.pkg
RaQ4-All-Security-0.0.1-8061.pkg
RaQ4-en-OSUpdate-1.0-bto-special.pkg
RaQ4-All-Security-1.0.1-8762.pkg
RaQ4LE-All-System-0.0.1-9340.pkg
RaQ4-All-System-1.0.1-9882.pkg
RaQ4-All-Security-1.0.1-10602.pkg
RaQ4-All-Security-1.0.1-10749.pkg
RaQ4-All-Kernel-1.0.1.216C28III.pkg
RaQ4-en-OSUpdate-2.0.pkg
RaQ3-RaQ4-OpenSSH-3.0.2p1-1.pkg
RaQ4-All-CMU-2.27.pkg
%end Packages

Unfortunately the changed CD does not load on my PC (kernel panic).
Any tips very appreciated ;-)

Regards,
Daniel
