Hello folks,

anyone can post me a valid source path for

  • online update
  • RPM repository

for SuSE 8.2?

I have to install the system on a old notebook.

Thx for your help.

8.2 is ancient old, I don’t think you’ll find any repos for it. Updates have stopped years ago

Yeah, I think all sites would have purged their archives of this old distro to recover space. What you need is a time machine, unfortunately.

I would also recommend not using an old distro because of security bugs in the software. What spec is your laptop? There are several distros that are suitable for low RAM machines.
