If I already have a bootable USB disk with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) in it, is it possible to add a package to it?
For example, trying to add ntfs-3g package to be able to mount a partition formatted with the NTFS filesystem from the rescue shell in RHEL.
I booted a broken Windows machine with my USB disk (RHEL) and chose the option to rescue, and when I get to the shell, I am unable to mount the partition /dev/sda4 in my case, because it says it doesn't know the NTFS filesystem

It's probably easier to just create a new repo on it and add it at install time.

Thank you Ignacio, I am not quite following what you recommended. I am not trying to install anything, could you elaborate a bit more?

How did you create this "bootable USB disk"?

If you're not afraid of reinstalling, passingexpertto the installer will let you install to a USB drive, giving you a predictable install.

This is possible you will have to install the livecd-tools package from the EPEL repository, then create a custom kickstart file adding your updated package to the %package list then running.
livecd-creator -c kickstart.ks
The write the created iso to the USB.
Red Hat knowledge base article 44483 is suggesting the above tool. You may have also a look into the man page for livecd-creator utiltity.
