What I am:


What I want to do.
I want do install SuSE on three Computers, and i don't want to download the whole stuff three times.

What I did:
I downloaded the whole dir
ftp.suse.con/pub/suse/i386/8.2 on my window PC (NTFS)
and set up an ftp server (Titan FTP server)
Then I tryed to install Linux from there.
Etherithing was working well untill the selection of the Packages.

My Problem:
My SuSE Linux installation cant find any Packages.
It only works directly from SuSE FTP.

could someone tell me what the problem is?

Pleace don't tell me, that i have downloaded this 6 gigs linux stuff for nothing.

-> Sorry about my bad English, It's not my first language.

Hi Gurke,

You haven't wasted your time but this may be a little more difficult than you think

You need to export the data using NFS. (Not NTFS!)

Take a look at http://nfs.sourceforge.net/

Good luck!

thanks :-)

If you get ISO images when you download SuSe, burn the ISO images to CD in Windows (use Nero Burning Rom http://nero.com).
Then you can install it all ya want.
