I used <a  rel="nofollow" href="ftp://ftp-linux.cc.gatech.edu/pub/suse/suse/i386/9.1";>ftp://ftp-linux.cc.gatech.edu/pub/suse/suse/i386/9.1</a>.

If you do the network install, first nslookup or host or the ip address 
of fp-linux.cc.gatech.edu.  The manual/network install for Suse asked 
for the IP address separate from the path.

Since you've already installed, most of this is unnecessary, but I 
thought I'd document it for anyone else that's interested or happens 
across this page looking for installation instructions for Suse.

&gt;Guys,

&gt;Had to install Suse 9.1 Professional for my uncle over the weekend.  We
&gt;were converting a machine with an older obscure scsi bus, and Suse and
&gt;Fedora were the only two distros we could find that would work.  He's an
&gt;old Novell guy and a fan, so the Novell/Suse relationship tipped the
&gt;scales in that direction.
&gt;
&gt;I'm not really much of a Suse fan, and like yast even less.  I'm very used
&gt;to using up2date or apt to update systems and install new features.  yast
&gt;offers online software options, but I can't seem to find a list of servers
&gt;that you can add (there are no defaults).
&gt;
&gt;Can anyone point me in the direction of some online package repositories? 
&gt;Does SUSE maintain an official list?
&gt;
&gt;Thanks for the help!
&gt;
&gt;John
