I looked at CD1 for an Intel SLES9.  It has this file
/dosutils/install/install.bat that appears to be Windows oriented.  What
didn't work with that?

Yesterday I found a script on CD1 (install.dos) which sets up
directories and loads the CDs into the right places.  I thought that all
my problems were solved!  Alas and alak!

The mkslesroot script is a shell script for *nix, not for Windows.

I'll keep hunting.  I may break down and open a ticket with SuSE.

Thanks for the help,
