Suse 10.0 Eval - 64 bits- Instalation problem


Hi. I've downloaded Suse 10.0 x86_64 eval DVD for computer 64 bits (mine is a intel EM64T). The Checksum was correct, so I burned the DVD. The problem is after the boot, I choose the option INSTALATION. The first thing the instalation program does is to load the kernel. BUT, after it the program ask me to insert the CD 1, but the instalation is with a DVD!!!! No CD!!! After this point the program does not read the DVD anymore and keep asking me to insert CD1 and press OK when ready.

I downloaded 2 more times the same DVD, burned it, checksum Ok, and the problem remains. CAn you guys help me?

The problem is that the person who created the dvd image file didn't alter the installer sources to use a single disk, there is most likely a cd1, cd2, cd3 set of folders on the dvd instead of the correct install folder structure.

I would recommend downloading the cd version iso's instead, then there is no issue with the installer looking for cds that don't exist.

Hi friend. Thank you for your message.

The problem you're saying isn't happening. There aren't these set of folders as you thought that was inside the DVD image. So, about what you said:

1) The Folder structure of the DVD is: boot, docu, media.1 and suse. Inside Suse folder I have: i586, i686, noarch, setup and x86_64.

2) There isn't CD images for 64 bits arquiterure, so you advice cannot be followed by me. If you take a look at Suse's webpage you'll see that images for 64bits arquiture only exists on DVD form.


Thank you for you advices anyway.
