Hello Tim,
Yes, SUSE 9.1 can be downloaded from
http://www.suse.com/us/private/download/ftp/int_mirrors.html
Instruction:
http://www.suse.com/us/private/download/suse_linux/index.html
SUSE relies on a two step process with a boot CD followed by a network
install. I have not tried this.
Best regards,
Magnus L
======================
Installation Guideline:
This SUSE Linux 9.1 installation tree is suitable for installation via ftp,
http, nfs, smb or hard disk.
System requirements
You need at least 96MB main memory. To install on a machine with less
memory a (linux) swap partition is necessary.
Preparation
o booting from CD
Download the iso image boot/boot.iso and burn a CD with it.
o booting from floppy
Download the floppy disk image boot/bootdisk as well as the module disk
image files you need (at least boot/modules1 and likely the network
modules from boot/modules3).
Write the images to floppy disks using the 'dd' command:
dd if=[path_to_image] of=/dev/fd0 bs=36b
On non-linux systems, use the rawrite utility from the dosutils/rawrite
directory (rawrite.exe).
Installation
Boot from CD/floppy and at the bootpromt enter the installation source:
linux install=ftp://ftp_server/directory
Remember to substitute 'ftp_server' and 'directory' with the appropriate
values (e.g. install=ftp://[IP-ADDRESS]/pub/suse/i386/9.1 if you're
installing from the SUSE ftp server).
Alternatively, choose 'manual installation' and configure the network in
the installation program.
Preparing your own installation server
Just copy the whole installation tree to your local disk and make it
available via network.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!! IMPORTANT NOTE !!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you get errors such as "No installation media found on server" or
"Package foo.rpm does not exist" it most likely means that
a) The ftp/http server you are using is not accepting new
connections.
b) You've misconfigured the local network or proxy settings
In either case, please don't contact ftpadmin about this since
we can't fix your network and/or have no control over how busy the
ftp servers are.
