Don't worry. It is just a question of patience. First install yast, using rpm commands (put in one line the rpm command with all the needed packages from the dvd), then tell yast to install whatever you think you need. You are not the first one that had to do that.
Perhaps: cd to the directory in the dvd holding the yast packages, and try:
rpm -i yast*
If it says it needs something else, add it to the line. It is doable!
Here is the last I have done: rpm -i yast2* error: Failed dependencies: gnome-main-menu is needed by yast2-control-center-gnome-2.13.3-11.1.i586 libeel-2.so.2 is needed by yast2-control-center-gnome-2.13.3-11.1.i586 libgnome-desktop-2.so.2 is needed by yast2-control-center-gnome-2.13.3-11.1.i586 libslab.so.0 is needed by yast2-control-center-gnome-2.13.3-11.1.i586 libthinkfinger.so.0 is needed by yast2-fingerprint-reader-2.16.8-6.1.i586 yast2-installation >= 2.15.12 is needed by yast2-packager-2.16.53-3.1.i586 yast2-inetd is needed by yast2-printer-2.16.32-3.1.i586 libboost_regex.so is needed by yast2-squid-2.16.3-37.1.i586 libevms-2.5.so.0 is needed by yast2-storage-evms-2.16.26-0.1.i586 libevms-2.5.so.0(EVMS) is needed by yast2-storage-evms-2.16.26-0.1.i586 yast2-installation is needed by yast2-update-2.16.10-4.1.i586 yast2-security is needed by yast2-users-2.16.33-6.1.i586 yast2-ldap-client >= 2.15.8 is needed by yast2-users-2.16.33-6.1.i586 yast2-devtools is needed by yast2-ycp-ui-bindings-devel-2.16.47-5.1.i586 dhcppc3:/media/SU1100.001/suse/i586 # rpm -Uvh yast2-fingerprint-reader-2.16.8-6.1.i586.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libthinkfinger.so.0 is needed by yast2-fingerprint-reader-2.16.8-6.1.i586 dhcppc3:/media/SU1100.001/suse/i586 # rpm -Uvh yast2-fingerprint-reader-2.16.8-6.1.i586.rpm libthinkfinger-0.3-11.1.i586.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:libthinkfinger ########################################### [ 50%] 2:yast2-fingerprint-reade########################################### [100%] dhcppc3:/media/SU1100.001/suse/i586 # rpm -Uvh yast2-packager-2.16.53-3.1.i586.rpm error: Failed dependencies: yast2-installation >= 2.15.12 is needed by yast2-packager-2.16.53-3.1.i586 Where can I find yast2-installation ? -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards Erik Jakobsen eja@urbakken.dk Registered Linux user #114875 - http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
