trying to install the 10.2 RC by the net I noticed some
problems:
* I couldn't acheive the install, the downloading of the
system stuck at 15% (approx) - only for the record, no aswer
expected here
* the wiki gives the web page with the url of the
inst-source, but
** Yast asks for the IP of the server. this is not so easy
to find. one must open an xterm, make a ping to the server
url... this is quite natural for linux (is it?) but for
windows users seeking for linux it's absolutely unusable. we
shoulkd have some way to give the IP in a small popup
** I got from the web page an URL "http://ftp.opensuse.org/....";
I mostly got the "ftp" part so, in yast asked for "ftp"
install. Nothing happen then, but a stuck window "calling
ftp server", so I noticed than, even named
"ftp.opensuse.org", the server servez http protocol, and
with choosing http from yast, it at least tried to dl the
system...
in fact when yast is in ftp mode, it tries to connect to the
server first (before asking for the directory) and fail
jdd
