      Description of problem:

      Documentation directs user to create /media/sat6 folder and mount .ISO file in that location. The install-packages script on the .ISO creates a satellite.repo }}file with repos at the {{baseurl=file:///opt/satellite path, which does not exist if user followed documentation.

      This is either a code (script on install .ISO media) or a documentation issue. They do not match.

      How reproducible:

      Follow documentation for Satellite 6.17 [Installing sat. server in a disconnected network environment |https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_satellite/6.17/html/installing_satellite_server_in_a_disconnected_network_environment/index.]

      Tested using rhel-9.6-x86_64-dvd.iso and Satellite-6.17.5-rhel-9-x86_64.dvd.iso on a fresh rhel9.6 Server build.

      Is this issue a regression from an earlier version:

      Uncertain. Previous versions of this process have worked successfully but I do not recall what path was used.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Follow doco. Create system.

      2. Copy .ISO files into place and mount, per doco.

      3. Run the 'install-packages' script.

      4. Observe the error.

      Actual behavior:
      Line #54 in the `install-packages` script create variable DEST_DIR = "/opt/satellite/" which does not match the documentation directed `/media/sat6`

      Expected behavior:
      Script should use correct path. Either the documentation or the script needs adjustment.

      Business Impact / Additional info:

      Cannot complete the process without troubleshooting into script-code on read-only media.
