Make images of the dvds: dd if=/dev/dvd of=<folder>/<name>.iso Then you can mount the images with: mount -t iso9660 -o loop=/dev/loop[0-15] <full path of image> <mointpoint> With yast2 inst_source you can change the installation source. It is only necessary to mount the first dvd image, on the second dvd are only the sources. Am Thursday 15 July 2004 20:26 schrieb Creamer, Mark:
I'd like to reduce the chance of damaging my original dvds, so I thought I'd copy the contents to an area on one of my hard disks and run any installs I need from there. Do I need to set up any particular file structure for that, or just basically copy everything exactly as it's set up on the dvd to a folder? Once I've done that, how does YaST know to look there instead?
Sorry about the newbieness...thanks!
