Just download ARCHIVES.gz from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.0/ and copy it to /var/lib/pin/.

Thanks, Scott. It didn't occur to me that a .gz file would be on the ftp site. -- "Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it."

Check if the server has an 'ARCHIVES.gz', download it and copy it to '/var/lib/pin/ARCHIVES.gz'

Yes. The server(s) have this. Thank you. -- "Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it." -- George Orwell as Syme in "1984"

He was referring to the output you get from initially running the pin command: no file /var/lib/pin/ARCHIVES.gz found please insert CD1/DVD in your first CD-ROM/DVD drive and press enter, i will copy it for you!
