I'm attempting to install SUSE on an LPAR. 

I have set up an SMB share on a LINUX PC and created the shares as
specified in the install.bat file found on the first CD.  

After I configure the network, I am prompted to specify the installation
source (NFS, SAMBA, FTP).  I select SAMBA and then enter the IP address
of my LINUX PC.  It then prompts for the directory of the installation
media.  I have been entering suseinstall based on the label of Main
Folder in the bat file.  Is this what I should be using?

Then, after the install program runs and I select start installation, I
am prompted for the source medium.  I select network and then SMB for
the network protocol.  I enter the IP address of my SMB server and then
enter suseinstall as the share name.  This fail for CANNOT FIND THE
IMAGE.  Coding the share name sles9-CD1 seems to work until I get into
YaST and it can not find the source data.  

I guess I am confused as to what to enter where when it comes to
accessing the CD's.  If anyone can point me to some docs that describe
this process, I'd greatly appreciate it.
