Thanks in advance for any help in this matter. I've downloaded Suse 9.0 and saved it to a second harddrive (installing to a new harddrive). In particular, I'm doing a clean install to /dev/hda and the downloaded files of Suse 9.0 are on /dev/hdc (ext3 partition). I've burned the CD and I boot from it. I choose "Manual Install" at the appropriate menu, specify "From Harddrive", identify the partition and specify the path ("Suse9.0/9.0"). Everything seems to go relatively smoothly except that no software packages are found. At the installation summary, I get the following error message:
Cannot read package data from installation media. Media error? * ERROR: No proposal
I do the Ctrl-Alt-F5 (or similar) and poke around. I find the directory tree under /mounts/extra/Suse9.0/9.0. Everything seems to be there. I try to fix the problem within YaST2, but I don't see where I can tell the program where to look for RPMs it might not have found. Any ideas? Again, thanks for any insight anyone can provide. Best regards, Jim
