The mksles9root.sh is written such that if you don't have all of the CD images available, it won't work. You may need to edit it a little if you only have room for one .iso at a time. Also, the script can be told to only _mount_ the .iso images, not copy the contents. This will cut down on the amount of space needed for the install tree.
Finally, I'll repeat my standard soap-box cry, installing via HTTP give you _much_ better logging than via FTP. I use it all the time, and it tells me immediately what I've done wrong in setting up my installation source.

I noticed that makesles9root.sh copies the .iso but the install instructions say to burn the CD then copy the contents. I guess I'll wipe out sles9/CD1 and FTP the .iso Bill Dodge email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
