-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have an 10.1 test partition that I intended to dedicate to testing the update to 10.2 RC1, but it failed. As add on source, I enter: <ftp://ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/> I get the error (hand copied): <Unknown source type xxx ftp://ftp.opensuse.org/%2fpub/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/> I select retry, get a different bigger dialog box (the one that allows for login/pass/anonymous), choose http this time, and I get almost the same error, less the %2f: <Unknown source type xxx ftp://ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/> I switch to a text console, and I try "ping ftp.opensuse.org", getting "unknown host...". I then type "ifconfig", and I see that only the "lo" network interface is active. How come? How can I add an add on URL source, if the network has not being activated yet, and I see nowhere where I can activate it? (The 10.1 install,, that I had run previously to create a new test partition with this update test in mind, had detected the network fine: dns, connectivity test, et all) I was told here that this type of add on source was working, last october, by Andreas Hanke (<http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2006-10/msg00355.html>). Also, Andreas Jaeger says it is possible, but in a way I do not understand how to do: <http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2006-10/msg00334.html> - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFFbzBdtTMYHG2NR9URAu7zAJ4+t1M3B0pY7WEZrpNX9UzUC9kzGACgiZIK LuoaTsdQuU2a7N0RlbDu3oA= =+mnD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
