k heb Suse92 geinstalleerd staan en heb net de iso (7 - 8 GB) van 9.3 binnen.
Omdat ik liever (nog) niet een DoubleLayer DVD wil branden vraag ik me af hoe ik eventueel kan upgraden/installeren van versie 9.2 naar 9.3 (met behulp van de gedownloade iso !)
Wie zou me op de juiste weg kunnen helpen ?

The booting device is /dev/hde11 (/local).

I forgot the path's, but following works for my maschine:
## -------------------------------
title Installation (initial from harddisk)
kernel (hd0,10)/install/SuSE_90/DVD1/boot/loader/linux
ramdisk_size=65536 splash=silent manual=1 showopts
initrd (hd0,10)/install/SuSE_90/DVD1/boot/loader/initrd
## -------------------------------
The installation path is then "install/SuSE_90/DVD1".
Additional can you start the rescue system if you create a new
entry and then replace the option manual=1 through rescue=1.
