Go into Yast2 after downloading and starting an install with the 1st  
CD.  Change the source of the install so your doing a ftp install.
The server in Yast2 would be ftp.ale.org
The path would be pub/suse/i386/9.3
note the lack of an initial / or ending / on the path when filling in 
the blanks in the Yast2 form.  I think the Yast2 installation tool adds 
what it needs automatically since it is looking for a file in the 
distribution on the server that describes the repository and what it 
contains.

&gt; article text is as follows:
&gt;
&gt; Some nine weeks after the official release of SUSE 
&gt; &lt;<a  rel="nofollow" href="http://distrowatch.com/suse";>http://distrowatch.com/suse</a>&gt; LINUX 9.3, an installable DVD image of 
&gt; the product has been released to SUSE's download mirrors. SUSE is one 
&gt; of the leading Linux distributions on the market; its latest release 
&gt; is compiled from over 1,000 popular software packages and provides an 
&gt; early look at some emerging technologies, such as Xen virtualisation 
&gt; and Beagle desktop search. Despite that, many reviewers were left 
&gt; unimpressed by what they call a &quot;deliberate crippling&quot; of multimedia 
&gt; support in this release. See the distribution's features pages 
&gt; &lt;<a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.novell.com/products/linuxprofessional/overview.html";>http://www.novell.com/products/linuxprofessional/overview.html</a>&gt; for 
&gt; further information about SUSE LINUX 9.3. The DVD image is now 
&gt; available from a number of German 
&gt; &lt;<a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.novell.com/products/linuxprofessional/downloads/ftp/germ_mirrors.html";>http://www.novell.com/products/linuxprofessional/downloads/ftp/germ_mirrors.html</a>&gt; 
&gt; and international

&gt; mirror sites, such as this one: SUSE-9.3-Eval-DVD.iso 
&gt; &lt;<a  rel="nofollow" href="ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/suse/suse/i386/9.3/iso/SUSE-9.3-Eval-DVD.iso";>ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/suse/suse/i386/9.3/iso/SUSE-9.3-Eval-DVD.iso</a>&gt; 
&gt; (4,280MB, MD5 &lt;<a  rel="nofollow" href="ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.3/iso/MD5SUMS";>ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.3/iso/MD5SUMS</a>&gt;). As 
&gt; usual, a small network installation CD image for direct installation 
&gt; from a remote FTP or HTTP server is also available in the same 
&gt; directory as the DVD image.
&gt;
&gt; End of article
&gt;
&gt;
&gt; Note in addition to the downloadable DVD image they also have a 5 disk 
&gt; CD ISO image set available for download for the professional version. 
&gt; I am not sure if it is the full Professional version or if it is 
&gt; missing packages.
&gt;
&gt; the closet mirror I have found that has it is the Georgia Tech mirror 
&gt; site. I'm pulling my cd disk iso images from there.
&gt;
&gt; I thought this might be of interest to all of the ALE members who use 
&gt; SUSE
