Description Richard Dunkle 2007-08-12 20:32:26 UTC

after boot CD rom.  Select F4... select source FTP.  input location using IP address.  Install complains about domain name.  Seems it wants a name not ip address.  Install fails with FTP source

Comment 1 Christian Boltz 2007-08-12 20:42:03 UTC

It seems IP addresses are often used for installation nowadays...

-> duplicate of bug 299679?

Comment 3 Steffen Winterfeldt 2007-08-13 16:40:28 UTC
