Re: [PLUG] SuSE make


I would get those ISOs, but the box I am using doesn't do DVD, and the box with DVD doesn't want to do SuSE.

WTF? How about ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.2/iso/SUSE-Linux-9.2-FTP-DVD.iso
or
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/x86_64/9.2/iso/SUSE-Linux-9.2-FTP-DVD.iso


They're about 3GB each. Or you can download the mini-install and do an FTP install from the SuSE site or a mirror, though that will take forever.

This seems a bit smaller than the Pro kit (which was 8.5GB for both), so I guess either it doesn't include SRPMs or they just dropped the commercial stuff like Acrobat and their Access knockoff and so on. It sounds to be like the original poster got the Live CD, which I believe is pretty limited.

The full boat distro


(Professional) is about $90 and they do not make iso images available.
I have 9.0 Professional and it came with one double sided DVD and five
CD ROMs.

I'll probably buy 9.2 Professional just before they announce 10.0 :-P

I suspected something could be inadequate because I only got one disk to load. Is there a site for SuSE isos that provides more than one CD-ROM for install?

Thanks.

I am trying to install Oracle (yes, still). There were problems on
Mandrake that could not be overcome by lying to it and telling it the OS
was RedHat. Now I am attempting to install Oracle 10g on SuSE 9 (on
another box) but am told by the Oracle installer that it cannot find the
make utility at /usr/bin/make.

Any ideas?




What have you tried?  I don't have any suse systems without make, but I
guess the obvious first question... Is make installed?

And on one of my suse systems, /usr/bin/make is the installed location. Run yast/yast2 and use search. See if make is installed. If not, and
you plan on using that system to build software, I'd install one of the
development system groups on the machine. That will get you a large
selection of binaries you need to build software successfully.
