Odd thing that I'm trying to figure out. I was asked to re-install
gnome on a SUSE Enterprise server 10. After testing in a VM with the
same version that is installed on the server, I got to the point of
uninstalling. YAST is asking for openSUSE 10.2 cd1 . No one
involved in this knows anything about an openSUSE 10.2 cd.

Is there a way to force yast to accept the cd's we have?

How would an enterprise server think it needed an openSUSE cd?

Would it be okay to allow it to continue with openSUSE?

thank you in advance

for that problem look at softwaresources in yast,
maby there is a link to the cd's or ftp of openSUSE.
otherwise, try to put in the SLES cd's instead of openSUSE
and what rpm is that, that he wants of openSUSE 10.2 CD1 ?

Thanks for the reply

I'll look at softwaresources when I can reconnect to the network.
We don't have any openSUSE cds (iso's in this case since I'm doing
this remote and using the ILO interface on the server to do this
through).
I'm not sure what rpm wants it, I go in to yast and select GNOME to
install, it resolves a number of dependencies and then asks for the
openSUSE cd1.

The file or (maybe rpm?) it's saying just about the status bar is
libgsf.
