whim_gen · 22-06-2005, 05:11 PM

Hi ,
I jus saw the ftp site where i can download Suse 9.2 which is legal btw as it is hosted on Suse's Server

But the files there are in DVD.iso format.
I can download the whole package coz i have DataOne conn
('

')

(unltd till end of June)
But prob is i don have a DVD Writer('

')

So is there any way i can Copy it into 5 cds and install it.?
Also is there any site which can give the downloads in CD format....(Dont post it if its illegal..PM me)
Thanks in advance

You dont need to have a DVD writer....just a CD writer will do. Download the DVD ISO and extract it to some location in your HDD. Then in the /boot directory in the extracted directory, you will find a small boot.iso file, around 50-60 MB in size. Burn this ISO on a CD and boot your system from the CD. Once the installation process starts, select the location on your HDD as the installation source. I guess you will get it upto here from where you can carry on your own.
