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

&gt;Dow,
&gt;
&gt;Do happen to know how to do an upgrade like above.
&gt;
&gt;ie. 9.2 ==&gt; 9.3
&gt;
&gt;Thanks
