Is there any way to install from a remote (ftp or better: nfs)
dvd-iso (e.g. nfs://nfshost.bla.bla/path/to/openSUSE-10.3-GM-DVD-x86_64.iso)
image after booting with the mini-iso (e.g. openSUSE-10.3-GM-x86_64-mini.iso)?
I tried it, but if i give nfs://nfshost.bla.bla/path/to/ as the
installation path, the error message is something like
"no installation source found" and if i give
"nfs://nfshost.bla.bla/path/to/openSUSE-10.3-GM-DVD-x86_64.iso"
as the installation path, the error message is something like
"cannot mount installation source".
Ok, i know that nfs must export a directory, not an individual (iso)-file,
but i had expected a bit more logic in the installer.
Another problem is, if i want to install from ftp- or
nfs-Source, i have to wait for the dhcp-timeout, because it
seems not to be possible to circumvent dhcp. How to tell
the installer to not use dhcp at all?
mit freundlichen Grüßen
