Hello, I am installing SUSE 11.3 on an z LPAR (not under zVM). A full ISO image of the SUSE Linux for zSeries was downloaded (2 dvd's).
The dvd is loaded in the HMC cdrom and perform the IPL - Load from Removable Media or Server. That works and is loaded successfully and in the Operating System Messages window, it goes through initialization. When the prompts begin, I select: 1) Main Menu: 1-Installation 2) Start Installation: 1-Start Installation or Update 3) Choose the source medium: 1) DVD / CD ROM After this, I get a message: ***** No repository found What does this message mean? Does it mean it can't find a repository file in the DVD? What about on the 2nd DVD? When is the 2nd DVD read? I have read so many SUSE install docs and nowhere does it say what this might mean. Many of the processes I've read that describes my type of installation are very cryptic. I've also tried choosing option 2) Network when prompted for the source medium. That also failed with the same message about no repository found. Is there a document somewhere that fully describes and explains what each prompt is asking for? A demo or pictures are worth a thousand words. Any assistance would be appreciated. Kind Regards, Steve. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
