I have SLES4Pi up and running an have added mariaDB and would like to add PHP. I have not found the repository needed using YaST2 nor using zypper. I am hoping to install WordPress and use the RPi as a sandbox or possibly a production environment for a simple site.

Perhaps the “Software Modules” thread from a week or two ago is relevant  
for you: [http://forums.suse.com/showthread.php?t=8553](http://forums.suse.com/showthread.php?t=8553)

ab, thanks. I think this does answer my question. I’m new to SLES12 and I’m not sure how to install and work with SMT to access the updates and sync with the system. I have found documentation and will see if I can get it going.

Note SMT can’t be added to SLES for Raspberry Pi so you’ll need another  
64-bit server although it could be virtualised. If you need SMT-specific  
help I’d suggest posting in the SLES Patches/Updates forum @  
[https://forums.suse.com/forumdisplay.php?20-SLES-Updates](https://forums.suse.com/forumdisplay.php?20-SLES-Updates)

I’m hoping that in due course we won’t need to use SMT to provide  
modules/extensions to SLES for Raspberry Pi as it’s a bit like using a  
sledgehammer to crack a nut!

I’m using the Raspberry Pi platform as a an exploratory training environment. I have worked with a variety of Linux desktop installs but never a server version. Learning SMT goes beyond my immediate need on the Pi. Thanks.

Are the updates you listed in another post only available through SMT at this time?

Thanks, Jon

Yes this currently seems to be the case.
