I am trying to do a ftp install.  I did the following:

1.  Created a boot CD

2.  Reboot into menu

3.  Select manual install

4.  Type in linux install=ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/current in
the option box.

5.  Hit enter.  After answering English, etc.  I load the nic driver
(Tulip) successfuly.

6.  I start the install.  Give the address of my router/nameserver
192.168.0.1, answer the default to the next two questions, but it can't
ever conncet to the ftp server.

What am I doing wrong?


TIA

Harry G
