I copied the install files to my PC and ran an ftp server on my PC to complete the install. I used a freebe ftp server called FileZilla.

I can load the initial Kernel by putting the CD (CD1) into the CD-ROM drive on the HMC and perform a Lad from CD. After setting up the network the Linux kernel wants to read the rest of CD1. If I tell him to use the HMC CD-ROM the response is "Unable to load" (not an exact quote). I have tried to use NFS on a desktop which has SUSE 10 installed (about a year ago). I get a error saying the request was rejected error = -1. I have also tried using SMB to point to the CD reader on my Windows desktop and get the same response as above (both of these take a few minutes to return). Can someone who has done this give me an idea as to what I am doing wrong? Thanks, .........Larry Ps. Small shop - no money - VM not an option. Larry D.
