If you set your networking in yast, these settings should be copied along to the installed system. Also in yast, you can set your system-wide proxy configuration.
This is just too much manual intervention. It was soo easy with the old install-CD. Why is it not available anymore?
The CD format went away quite a while ago. I still have 6 CDs with SuSE Linux 8.2 somewhere, but that might have been the last one.
The NET-install CD would be a better alternative if you want more custom settings for your system. If you got a lot of systems to install, and you are worried about bandwidth, you can set up your own repository by copying the DVD to an FTP server in your own network and use that one as an installation source. (The installer will prompt you for the repository address if the connection fails, which it will do if your Internet has to go trough a proxy.)
Ugh, this is even more work just to do a simple install.
Josef, I can't quite follow your problem any more - getting access to the proxy has been solved (afair), so what is left? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (5.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
