64bit SUSE - doesn't list any packages to install on install DVD
I have little experience installing any Linux, and have googled and read forums all day to see if I can find an answer.
I downloaded the 9.3 64bit DVD .iso file, about 4.1GB, burned to DVD+RW with Nero.
I boot from the DVD and start the install;
1. Get to the screen where it sets up the configuration (for grub?) and under 'software' there are no packages listed. When I show details there are no packages at all to install.
2. Tried installing the 5 CD set (32 bit) and there are packages and installation proceeds.
Question - do I somehow have a bad .iso? I have tried to download the file from various mirrors but they are all coming up at 184MB... so I am fairly sure those files aren't complete. Any clues?
Thanks,
Troy
ps - I have a 64bit AMD64 3200+ chip, ASUS K8v SE board 512 MB memory, installing onto an already partitioned drive (main and swap partitions set)
