Suggestion - download the whole FTP-version (use wget), then run the update process with the distro NFS mounted.

Another comment. I burned the boot.iso and when it asked for the installation source, I pointed it to / of the partition containing the 9.2 distro. Everything went normally, starting YaST, etc. When I clicked "Accept", I got an error stating that the target, /dev/hda5, could not be mounted. I went to a console and did a df, only to find that all partitions in /dev/hda5/etc/fstab had already been mounted. So, I guess that it follows that it could not be mounted because it already had been (at /mnt in the installation). Will this still be a problem with an NFS mount?
