I'm trying to install thtough Web SuSe-9.2 (SuSe-9.2 and not 9.3!)
Boot image (about 65Mb) downloaded and burned on CD.
CD boots without problem.
I want to install on a laptop in a home LAN.
Manual installation:
1) When asked for IP-address I type 192.168.1.50: accepted 2) When asked for Broadcast address I type 255.255.255.224: accepted 3) When asked for gateway address I type 192.168.1.63: accepted 4) When asked for DNS server I type the DNS address of the server: accepted
5) Problem is here: when asked for IP address of the FTP server for installation if I type ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.2, it is rejected.
As I don't have the numeric IP address of the FTP server what must I do?
Type in ftp.suse.com for the ip address it will then ask for the directory and then type in pub/suse/i386/9.2 It should continue after that to the next step. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
