Hi guys, I downloaded the openSuSE 10.1 ISOs with BitTorrent, but discovered that they are too large to burn to the CD-Rs at my disposal. So, I thought I'd have a go at putting them up on my LAN's FTP server to see if I could do a (local) network install. I downloaded, burned and booted from the mini ISO, and I've managed to get as far as the installer logging into my FTP server and requesting /boot/i386/root, which, unsuprisingly, doesn't exist, but it's not a bad start for a first attempt... Any ideas on how to go about this - converting half-a-dozen ISOs to something I can put on my FTP server and point the network installer at? The reason I'm doing this is because I've already really exceeded my ISP's bandwidth limit by downloading 3.5GB of ISOs (so I can't do it again by, for instance, installing from kernal.org), but as a result I have the install binaries on my LAN, it's just that I can't get 'em into the target machine in the originally intended manner (on half-a-dozen CD-Rs, 'cause they're too big). It's worth a try, but I don't know enough about the format the network installer expects. It would be perfectly possible to install straight from ISOs on an FTP site, but... Oh, and one more complication, I only have WinXP boxes at my disposal right now - nothing that can run *nix tools... All advice, including "don't bother", welcomed.
