Create NFS installation source from 5 CDs


Hi!

I have the 5 CDs for SuSe 9.2, I have 5 computers that are running SuSe and it is a real pain to be popping cds in and out all the time.

I have a machine that has an NFS server and a 120gig harddisk. I noticed the yast allows for an installation source from NFS. How would I copy the CDs to a folder on this machine and make it an installation source?

(There is a file in there that seems to be like an index to the CD, so I would have to regenerate that file somehow. Although I really do not know how to do this.)

Thanks,

David

Have a look here:

This is for older SUSE versions, but may lead you in the right direction.
