Question about DLing Suse 7.3

I've been DLing Suse 7.3 from one of the mirror ftps.. I've got two questions about it though, first, are some directories supposed to be empty? And second, on the FTP site in the \full-names\i386 dir there are tons of directories with long dir names, but when the CuteFTP tries to change dir to DL whatever's in 'em it says that it fails to find the dir.. there are hundreds of these dirs in the directory and I just wanna know if for some reason when the DL finishes I'm going to be missing like half the OS.

If you have a net connection (DSL/Cable) all you need to do is download a little floppy image and write to a bootfloppy.. and then you can boot off the floppy and install directly off the internet via FTP install... read the Suse install docs.. its in there.

Yes you are downloading for nothing. Either use FTP or go with the Evaluation ISO -----> get it here! . The thing with the ISO is that Suse will only run if the CD
containing the ISO is in your CD-Drive.
