Hi,
I'd like to upgrade a 10.2 openSUSE installation to a 10.3, in a laptop
that does not have any DVD drive.
I may use for the installation a Windows based PC, that is not mine.
This PC has a DVD drive, which is set as Master.
The idea is to boot from the mini CD (MD5 ok) in my laptop, and then to
install through the DHCP-based LAN.
On the source PC ("John"), the DVD (openSUSE 10.3, MD5 fine) is shared
and has a share name of... DVD.
So i boot the mini Cd in the laptop, and go through SMB / CIFS (Windows
Share).
All seem sto go right (entering the correct IP address of the server
(pinged before: ok), taking care of the case sensitive "DVD" share name,
etc.) until i get stuck at one point:
when i'm prompted to "Enter the directory on the server", i try several
combinations but i always get a "No repository found" message.
I'm not using any ftp server in the Windows PC, but it should work
without, provided that the "directory" is entered the correct way, i think.
But what is the information supposed to give, in this situation?
Can someone please help me?
TIA
Best Regards,
PatrickM
