Unhappy Suse 8.2 CD 1 insert error


i downloaded all form oregon university, i burn the cd iso image, use partition magic to make room for the new os and booted form the new cd and selected installation form hard drive. The downloded files are on my windows D drive fat32 partition in the "linux" sub directory.

When i am using YaST2 to install software package, it is asking for the SuSE 8.2 CD 1 but i have downloaded and i have installed it from the hard drive that is formated fat 32. i have access to that drive and can read from it with konqbrowser. when i click: view detail, i have in the box below url: hd:///linux;device=/dev/hda5;filesystem=auto
and below it is written: ERROR(Media:not attached)

i installed other package before and all work fine.

i think that somehow that line changed but i do not known what to write to fix the problem.

i tried changing the url date ex: filesystem=vfat ... etc. nothing i have tried work.
can anyone help me?


I found the solution

I went to YaST2 and clik on "Change Source of Installation"

then use the add button using "local directory", i use the browse button to select where is the downloded system. I deleted the old line.

After i tryed installing packages and other things in the YaST2 that used to ask me the CD 1 and it did not ask me anymore and all il working well.

I hope that the solution will be helpfull to someone in the futur.

Frank
