[opensuse] Problems trying advanced install of OpenSuSE.




Extracted from Installation guides advanced install (without CD):

Internet/Network install using GRUB/LILO

First download the boot.iso from any mirror. The following needs to be done as root. Move or copy the boot.iso to the directory boot. Next in directory /boot do the following:

# mount -t iso9660 -o loop boot.iso /mnt
# cp /mnt/boot/i386/loader/initrd /boot/inst-initrd
# cp /mnt/boot/i386/loader/linux /boot/inst-linux
# umount /mnt

If you use x86_64 or PPC, you can find linux and initrd in /mnt/boot//loader/ (please replace with i386, x86_64 or ppc depending on your hardware).




Well,I cannot find the above files and I did exactly that! Any suggestion?

Thanks.
