Hi everyone :)

Im having problems adding an ftp installation source in yast (using 9.1
personal). Whenever i try to add a source i get the following error

Unable to create installation source
Details:
ERROR(InstSrc:E_no_instsrc_on_media)

Ive tried repeatedly using different servers (all were working in firefox
anyway), doing a full YOU update and then tried reinstalling, but still get
the same issue.

Does anyone have any ideas? Apart from this isuue i have been really blown
away by 9.1 and am looking to ditch windows, but really need to get this
working first.

tia to anyone who can help
