</I>Well, the second proposal should not really take a whole week to
do, no? Just create an iso from $repo_updates and merge
all those into one if there's enough space on the CD.
But then, i fail to see the difference between doing a default install,
and installing 600 updates from repos, or downloading an
ISO with those updates.
If you want to provide those updates to others without
redownloading, you can set --no-clean option to urpmi
and save your /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/ if that is your use case.
