SuSE 9.3 install question

Post by Diekan »

I'm at a loss here.

I've bought a new laptop (Dell) and I've partitioned the HD with a 10 gig space for Windows 2000 and I wanted to put SuSE 9.3 on the remaining partition. HOWEVER. The laptop does not have a DVD drive - which is needed for the DVD install of SuSE.

I have the laptop networked with me PC which DOES have a DVD drive and SuSE 9.3 on it's own partition. I've tried downloading the first disk .iso and running that on the laptop then telling it to find the rest of the install files on the DVD of the PC. It's not working.

What else can I do other than downloading all the .iso disks, which would take days.
