I'm trying to configure a SLES 10.3 machine as our Zypper server. I created the zypper directories with all the RPMs, made the directory structure accessible over HTTP but I'm stuck at the final stage: createrepo.
Looks like 'createrepo' is not present on this version
Could someone please throw some light here? Double-TABing show below commands/executables are present but I don't think any of them are of use to me
No.. it isn't there
Also, the machine is SLES 11.3 (not 10.3 as wrongly mentioned by me). This is the last
step and I'm blocked here. I had configured this machine's HTTP so that I can use this as a Repo server for other SLES clients.

itc-zypper:~ # zypper addrepo /media/SLES-11-SP3-DVD-i58607031/suse/i586/ local1

Can anyone give me a little clue on why the hard drive cache read timings on sles 9 is better then sles 11? The same hardware was used in both test. I even deleted the ata_generic module from initrd.
The speed difference is 10MB vs 5 MB

Hi,
I would like to programmatically find if given OS is SLES 10 / RHEL 3/.RHEL 4/RHEL5 etc ..
For this do we have any library call/sys call? Or should we use any sys. structure which would give me detailed info. Share me if you have any pointers.
Thanks in advance
