thanks in advance...
 
wenever i try to install anythin via YAST i get the error
"File '/repodata/repomd.xmf' not found in medium suse..../oss/
 
^^You have to configue repos 1'st :) Open Yast and under software section there is an option for Software repos. configuration :) Just run it :)
 
that doesn't do anythin....

i get the error at the end wen i run Software Management
"There was an error in the repository initialization.
'repo-oss': [|] Valid metadata not found at specified URL(s)
History:
- SKIP request: User-requested skipping of a file
- File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium 'http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1/repo/oss/'
"

This i get if i try to install anythin
I checked Index of /distribution/11.1/repo/oss and there is no repodata directory
 
and wenever i select any option in Yast i get this too "Invalid color/resolution combinations , The selected color are not supported by the graphic card frame buffer
 
aha, found another forum link where it says to remove the trailing slash from ".../oss/" !

so it should be ".../oss", try that? check all the links...
 
i did that too.... still it asks.... i checked in that and its not there.... so obviously it will fail.....

thanks for the help
 
it should be listed along with your other package repositories... but anyway nevermind, probably the online repositories are still being restored...
