I think I like the new YaST concept that will allow me to update
everything from YaST. However, I'm not having much luck in adding
installation sources. The only one I've been able to add so far is
packman. Here's a typical error message. The error message itself is
always the same:

Unable to create installation source
from URL 'ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/suse/'.
Details:
ERROR(InstSrc:E_no_instsrc_on_media)
Try again?
    Yes     No

I've installed installation sources on earlier versions so I'm pretty
sure I know how to do that but, just in case, I went through the Novell
Cool Solutions tutorial.

Can anyone point me to a plain-English how-to or point out what I might
be doing to get the error message? Any help appreciated.
