I had some troubles setting up the repositories correctly, that’s why I wanted to share my experience and my current settings. This post is divided into two parts because in my first attempts I had a setup with a remote SMT-Server. Meanwhile, I use SUSE Manager to provide the update repositories. Continue reading →
