We have much more packages than there is space on five CDs, and so some packages are only contained on the DVD. As the main focus of the CD set is on desktop/client side/end user applications, stuff like the PostgreSQL server package is among the first to be left out if we run out of CD space. Possible workarounds are: - copy the package from a machine that has a DVD drive - install the package from the FTP version of SUSE Linux. - get a DVD drive (they are cheap these days) ;) cu Reinhard ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
