Hello!

I need to install openSuSE 10.3 on machine described in title. Integrity server with intel Itanium processor arch.
Have already downloaded whole installation source directory from oss.sgi.com. Have prepared CDrom to boot and launch install. While stuff from sgi do not fit on DVD rom I have options, install via FTP (thats OK) or from USB HDD (that's also OK). Problem is, that first moment there was message that pointed directory is not an installation repository. After messing with FTP in another console i see, that installation process can not mount FTP dir. I do not understand why, while there everything is OK with server while I can do that manually on another box. Well, i wrote whole data on external HDD and point to USB disk for install source. Then it appear to be ok for a while. Installation process start say doing phase 1 of 3 and then stop with note that given source can not be used for install. Messages are not exact, but I hope You understand I'm talking about. Any ideas, how to install 10.3 on Itanium.

Or, why I'm doing this - I want to run Xen virtualisation on this machine, so all recommendations on this case is also welcome.
