As a minimum allow the Updates repository to be included. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

This is very similar to the problem discussed in 163299. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 163299 ***
How is this a duplicate of bug 163299? That poster requested the ability to add additional packages. I'm requesting that this distro catch up to what the openSUSE developers have been doing for a long time. As a minimum enable the Updates repository.
You can use preupgrade to do this instead of using an install DVD.
