Anyone tried out the Suse 9.3 netinst, as per "SUSE-Linux-9.3-mini-installation.iso"?
I got mine from http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/suse/Suse/i386/9.3/iso/ and MD5SUM is correct etc, etc. When you have a few source options network or CDROM. Choosing CDROM only lets you go into rescue mode. Choosing HTTP will go out the appropriate mirror, it always is looking to load "boot/root" , appending it as a suffix to the URL you specify. Now the only "boot/root" I can find is http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/suse/Suse/i386/current/boot/root. The system will try to load it but dies with an error, I think it is actually for 9.2 I have tried it on another machine with the same issue. The structure of all the other Suse mirrors look the same (for instance http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/suse/suse ). Googling doesn't offer an answer. I have had good success install previous versions of SuSe from CD, I thought I would give a direct install a go now that I have a nice broadband connection that allows me zero-metered downloads from the ISP mirror.
