I tried that site and that exact path (that's the only one I tired), and that didn't work. I had used that server most of the time for my YOU processing. Maybe there's some additional software in place on the regular
The actual path you would need to use is <blahblah>/discontinued/<arch>/updates/<version>/
Are you sure? I looked at the path YOU in my 9.1 uses, and the "<arch>/updates/<version>/" is not there. YOU knows and expects to add that part. . . (snip) . -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
Carlos: I looked at the paths on ftp.suse.com and it looks like the only difference between the regular update folder and the discontinued folder is the addition of that "discontinued" folder in the path. I. e., -- ftp.suse.com/pub/SuSE/i386/update looks just like ftp.suse.com/pub/SuSE/discontinued/i386/update with the exception that after update, there is no longer an 8.1 node on the non-discontinued path and it shows up in the discontinued path. So, under YOU under "choice of installation source", I tried chose "expert" and tried -- *) For type of URL: -- FTP *) For Directory path, each of the following -- discontinued discontinued/i386 discontinued/i386/update discontinued/i386/update/8.1 discontinued/i386/update/8.1/patches None worked, so that makes me think that maybe you just can't use YOU on the discontinued releases(?).
