Sort of. Burn the mini iso (or the first cd), loop-mount the currently
wanted iso image to /mnt, point the installer there, wait until it
wants the next disk, loop-unmount it, loop-mount the next iso image
to /mnt, continue...
At least that's the way I installed RC1 on my machine.
To make it "less interactive", you could do
for i in 1 2 3 4 5
do
mkdir /mnt/CD$i
mount -oloop -rtiso9660 SUSE-10.0-CD-OSS-i386-RC1-CD$i.iso /mnt/CD$i
done
and give ".../CD1" as installation source.
This way, the "change media" interaction is not needed. YaST will by
itself try to find all CDn directories if "/CD1" is the end of the given
path.
But anyways: this is not "install from harddisk" because you need an
external server.
Doing this within the system lacks the first step: you can't switch with
F2 to a parallel text console (where you could do the mounts locally
before installation) before you have accessed CD1...
Maybe it can work if you use a "real" CD1 instead of boot.iso.
Cheers -e
