           Summary: Beta2 DVD network install "Directory on Server" preset

When performing a network installation from the openSuSE 11.0 Beta2 DVD after
setting up the NIC the IP-Address of the Server as well as the Directory on
Server are asked for.

The input field for Directory on Server is preset with a dash ("/") implicitly
suggesting that it's needed (i.e. /distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ ),
while in fact using it effectively disables network install.

Also the necessary repositories should be preset (as in the boot.iso), new
users will spend quite some time digging for them.
