Does anyone know of a configuration file for Yast1 where the default FTP address for retrieving packages for installation is stored? The built-in address is at SuSE, but I often get bumped off because the server is too busy, and to retry I have to go through the whole selection procedure again. I'd like to set the default to download.sourceforge.net, which is the official principal US mirror.

Change the "Installation Medium" under "Installation Settings ->" in YaST.
'Fraid that doesn't work, at least for an update directory - I just tried it. It won 't accept a directory as valid unless it has a setup subdirectory, and provides no way of browsing. The FTP option in Install Packages, on the other hand, does allow browsing. Paul Abrahams
