 Select "Installation Source" and change to point at OSS and non-OSS repositories: (http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.2/repo/oss and http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.2/repo/non-oss) or alternatively at iternet installation repositories close to your location (see <a href="http://en.opensuse.org/Mirrors_Released_Version">http://en.opensuse.org/Mirrors_Released_Version</a>), or a local institutional source you have built from the SuSE 11.2 DVD, or you may prefer to continue to point at the installation DVD.

 <h3>Add additional installation sources</h3>
-<p>Add the LON-CAPA SuSE 11.2 repository as an additional installation source. Once this is done, software installation in yast should then have access to a minimum of three repositories - a YUM source for SuSE updates (established when you run online update from yast), an installation source (for OSS packages included in the standard distribution) and the LON-CAPA repository (for extra packages needed to run LON-CAPA). For the LON-CAPA source you will use:
-<dl style="list-style:square outside none">
-<dd>Media Type</dd>
-<dt>HTTP</dt>
-<dd>Protocol</dd>
-<dt>HTTP</dt>
-<dd>Server Name</dd>
-<dt>install.loncapa.org</dt>
-<dd>Directory on server</dd>
-<dt>suse/11.2/</dt>
-<dd>Authentication</dd>
-<dt>Anonymous</dt>
-</dl>
-After saving this configuration information for the LON-CAPA repository, you will need to import a public LON-CAPA key, before the catalog is read, and the repository is available to you. Quit yast.
-</p>
-<p>Use zypper to add two additional repositiories provide by openSuSE - one for the R statistics package (the R-patched repo), and one for the Maxima computer algebra system (the science repo).  Use the following commands to add them.
