If any body know the work around please let me know. I just hope that this problem is not a SuSE 5.3 problem, if it is I hope they look at this fault in SuSE 6.
Don't know if it helps, but I NFS installed 5.2 without problems here.... -Torvald - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

I ran into a similar problem with Suse 5.1 when there was "files" on the root partition that had the same name as a name required for the directory tree, you may want to check that (how that happened is another story). At any rate, the way I got around it is by reformatting the relevant partitions and basically starting over. The other option is to log in as root, and check what files are present in the root partition. BTW, you probably should check the entire directory tree (That's why I just reformatted and started over, a case of laziness (or rather inability to log in because of an existing file of /etc which effectively made it inaccessible:=( -- cya l8r Leon McClatchey leonmcclatchey@homemail.com Linux User 78912 (Win95 Box) - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
Have you waited for the screen to come up asking you to schich diskets ? <BR> <BR> I assume you are swiching from disk 1 to the next disk needed ?<BR> <BR> If so , you can exit yast completly , (assuming is installed all the basic stuff) re run it , go nack to install/update packages and it will list what was not installed. Make sure the proper disk is in the drive before starting yast. It will then ask you if you want ti try installing them agien. Answer yes, and it will use the current disk. If this fails , just go back and select the packages you want to install. place the proper disk in tu\he drive , before firing up yast. then inallall them package by package grouped by diskette.<BR> <BR> there is a file somewhere on disk one that list the package , package doc and that has the disk number on it and disk path, Its on disk one /suse/contents and are listed by package name<BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> At 09:58 AM 12/9/1998 +0200, you wrote: <BR> >>>><BR> <BLOCKQUOTE><BIG><BIG>Hi Everybody</BIG></BIG> <BR> <BR> <BIG><BIG>I have a problem with the NFS installations of SuSE 5.3. .
