OK, i want to install suse, i have gotten the boot .iso. When i boot from the cdrom into the install i try to do a network install and it wants me to enter a ip address of the place the software is on, i want to know what the ip address is and what ever else i need, to do for this install?

Ping those available suse ftp/web server, e.g.
ftp.suse.com = 217.9.113.66

enter where the directory at those server, e.g.
/pub/suse/i386/8.1/

Have a lot of fun!
