problem with installing suse 9.2
i was installing linux suse 9.2 but some packages in cd 1 wasnt installed and i click i clicked ignore.specially last 40 packages.first name of most of them was yaST.and after that it was restarted and it asked login name and password and i couldnt install other cds .Im sure problem isnt from CD
maybe my partitions are the problem.this is the list in the partitioning in install time
dev/hda 76.3 Gb
dev/hda1 19.0 Gb win 95 fat32 lba
dev/hda2 57 Gb extended
dev/hda5 18.8 Gb win 95 fat32 lba
dev/hda6 8.4 Gb Hpfs/NTFS -------------drive E in windows
dev/hda27 603.9 Linux swap
dev/hda8 8.2Gb linux native
dev/hda9 21.0 Gb Hpfs/Ntfs -----------my drive F in windows
I resized drive E and empty 9.2 Gb but I feared to move drive f and i formated with swap and ext3 by partition magic you can see hear

nobody can help me

I would recommend that you reinstall, and do so with a newer version of SuSE. 9.2 is several years old. The newest SuSE out there is openSuSE 10.1, available here:

thanks for your reply. you are sure this is the problem?
