Re: Where are the SuSE 9.2 Professional CD ISOs?

I am new to SuSE and new to YaST. I would have preferred to receive SuSE 9.2 Pro on DVD instead of 5 CDs in the first place but he didn't have enough storage space available to dl the entire ISO for that at the time or I don't believe I had acquired my DVD-drive at the time - one or both.

The only thing which confuses me about installing from the DVD instead of the 5CD set he gave me is how to get YaST to request that I insert the DVD instead of 'CD 2' or 'CD 4' whenever I need to add something to my system which isn't already there?

CD or DVD is no problem for Yast. Just boot the machine with the media and do your thing.


Your response, kind person, (aside from all comments regarding my whining) is exactly the kind of response I *expected* to receive from a newsgroup such as this.

Thank you very much.

You better start expecting worse with that kind of attitude...
