Thanks for your replies,

At least we know someone has had success.  Still it is a real pain
having to sort it out because I had already been waiting 2 weeks for it
to arrive.

Lenz, if I get in touch with the SuSE UK office will they sort out a
replacement for me?

Thanks,

Andy Branch

Subject: RE: [SLE] SuSE 6.3 DVD Edition

I received my 6.3 dvd copy friday, and mine works fine. I use a EIDE dvd
player (toshiba). It boots from CD, no problem =:-))
I did not receive a diskette, though, wich I miss, because I wanted to
do a
upgrade from 6.2. Now I installed everything fresh, which is not to bad,
in
this case.

One problem: My Adaptec 1505 SCSI card is not recognised at all, and i
have
not figured out yet where the right SCSI kernek (07 I think..) is
located.
Maybe this release has some SCSI recognition problems?

regards,

Roeland

Subject: RE: [SLE] SuSE 6.3 DVD Edition

Hi,

I don't know if you still have the problem with the DVD disk or if you
managed to resolve it.  I received my copy (on DVD) this weekend and
have exactly the same problem with the exception that I have the
Bootdisks but still no luck.  

I am using SCSI and reading it via a Panasonic DVD-RAM drive.

I know there is nothing wrong with the Drive because I can read other
DVD disks in Windows (I can't read the SuSE disk though).

I tried reading it from the SuSE 6.2 installation I have but get "No
media Found".

I was not trying to do an update, but a clean install.

I wish I had got my copy on CD now :-(

I have emailed SuSE tech support and am waiting for an answer.

Thanks,

Andy Branch

Subject: [SLE] SuSE 6.3 DVD Edition

Hi,

I got the DVD Edition of 6.3, and finally got around to installing over
the
weekend.

Only I can't read anything on the disc. 

Firstly there were no bootdisks so I tried to boot from the DVD drive,
and
nothing happened.

So next I used an old SuSE Bootdisk and it couldn't mount the DVD drive.

Then I tried a DOS Bootdisk to see if I could read anything, but there
was
nothing.

And finally I tried Win95 which can read some other DVD-ROMs and still
nothing.

Do I have a bad DVD? or do I need to do something special?

Any help would be much appreciated.
