Updating SuSE 9.1, change source of installation?


I was wondering how I would update SuSE 9.1 by changing the source of installation in YaST. Does anyone know a FTP server I can use to update it?

You mean update to 9.2/9.3? I wouldn't recommend this! Always update by booting from a CD first. Only this way the new kernel will be loaded first and allow a clean update. If you just want to update e.g. KDE or some multimedia packages, have a look at the sticky thread about YaST update sources. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=253645
And maybe here:

There is also a nice description on the Novel pages, but I seem to be too stupid to find it.
