No, Spacewalk creates this path for you.

Correct. Spacewalk creates this location for you and it is not browsable.

It does, via the Spacewalk application.

It's delivered by the Spacewalk application via mod_wsgi.

No. Spacewalk does all of this for you. You don't have to copy anything anywhere after mounting the ISO and using that in the Spacewalk GUI.

Cheers,
