Installing Add-On Products
Add-on products are system extensions. You can install a third-party add-on product
or a special system extension of SUSE Linux Enterprise, for example, the SDK add-on
or a CD with binary drivers. To install a new add-on, use Software > Add-On Products.
You can select various types of product media, like CD, FTP, USB mass storage devices
(such as USB flash drives or disks) or a local directory. You can also work directly
with local ISO files. To add an add-on as ISO file media, select Local ISO Image and
enter the Path to ISO Image. The Repository Name is arbitrary.
