Create a directory to mount the ISO image and then mount it

suse11:/var/tmp # mkdir /root/iso

suse11:/var/tmp # mount -o loop /var/tmp/SLES-11-SP2-DVD-x86_64-GM-DVD1.iso /root/iso/

suse11:/var/tmp # df -h /root/iso
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/loop0 3.1G 3.1G 0 100% /root/iso

Add the directory as a new repository. In the example below, I’m calling my repository Suse11SP2

suse11:/var/tmp # zypper ar /root/iso/ Suse11SP2
