I think that is the same problem I encountered when I tried to use YOU for
the second time (the first time worked fine but I think something was
changed with the first update)

I eventually found an answer on Google and noted it at the very bottom of
http://www.fisherfamily.orcon.net.nz/linuxnote.htm

Now that I have SuSE running on my notebook, I realise that there are a 
few minor problems with the desktop install.  When I go to use the Yast 
Online Update tool (YOU) I first get

"could not write server list to disk."

and the list of installation sources (ftp servers) is blank.  Presumably 
this listed in a configuration file somewhere, and I am thinking I could 
just copy it from notebook to desktop to populate the list.  But perhaps 
there is more to it than meets the newbie's eye - maybe a permission 
problem?

My 5 minutes of googling (sorry to contradict you Douglas!) hasn't got 
me anywhere.  Can anyone help?

Roger
