Maybe there is a workaround, not to my knowledge ...........

Media containing only source is not bootable so there is no work around.

so, i just need to abandon that download.

i have been cheated by people to download the wrong file.

I really got no idea about what SRC exactly means here.

SRC refers to Source generally.

ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/suse/i386/10.0/iso/

Take a look at the above link to see the contents of the FTP.

SUSE-10.0-DVD-SRC-GM.iso
contains all sources for the applications which are included
on any 10.0 media. A download of single source rpms is possible
via http://ftp.opensuse.org

So I still think that you would have done good with the CDs.

i completed the download of SRC-GM of suse 10.0, it is not a bootable DVD, just a source file.

duffmckagan · 10-13-2005, 11:33 AM

So I think that you can preferrably download the 5 CDs, install SuSE 10.0 and be happy.

I don't believe what I see. Am I reading this right? Nobody cheated you. Just learn to use rpm packages

I installed 10.0 from this particular DVD using minimal boot.iso which loaded kernel and recognized the packages on DVD.

You cannot install a system from the SRC discs, they contain source rpms meant for rebuilding packages or for developers to take a look at the code. Download the discs containing the binary packages and install from there.

yes, i just got my Eval DVD,
haha,
will install it tonight.

I don't like this release a bit. Compare to 9.3 and even 9.1 it is not scoring up

Please, accept my apology! I misled you. My mistake, I had custom-built DVD inside the drive. That's why it recognized the packages. Sorry again!!
