Zitat: SUSE Linux 9.3 FTP ADDON PACKAGE

Due to limited space on our CD media, a certain part of the software packages of SUSE LINUX 9.3 Professional is only on DVD 1 of our media. If you are a customer without a working DVD drive and if you wish to install software which is only on the DVD, we provide all additional packages for download.

These addon software package set contains:

- all 64-bit packages - many 32-bit developer packages - additional 32-bit server packages

For details see the full list of 32-bit software available only on the SUSE LINUX Professional DVD at: http://www.novell.com/products/linuxpackages/professional/diff_cd_dvd.html

For convenient search and installation, you can add the FTP path as installation source in YaST: - Start YaST and in the "Software" group the module "Change installation source". - Click on "Add" and choose "FTP" - Add the name of the FTP mirror of your choice in this shape:

ftp.gwdg.de

- Add the path to the directory where the folders media.1 and suse are located, e.g.:

/pub/suse/i386/9.3/

- Click on "Finish"

After that, once the software installer module is started, all packages from the FTP source will be found and available for installation.

Additional note: The complete SUSE Linux 9.3 FTP distribution is being worked on and will be made available in this directory.
