We want to connect recycled 600mHz boxes to the network and install 9.3 from the NFS server. SUSE-Linux-9.3-mini-installation.iso seems to be hard to find.
No need to. Just boot off SUSE9.3 CD1, select Installation from the first menu, then abort it after it shows current system configuration.
On the next menu load kernel module for your NIC, start installation, select Network and NFS, fill out all network information and there you go.
No sweating.

The SuSE 9.3 CD got us into the NFS directory just fine, but ... we kept getting told we did not have permission to READ those files. IIR, they are all drwx-r-x-r-x root root One of us thought NFS too tricky, so we loaded Apache. Yep, YAST software install picked up the Apache RPMs from the iso on the HD. The html attempt fared no better than NFS. Does loopback mounting the iso do something to the permissions?
