first of all Thanks a lot for your prompt response.
As pointed by you I wrote Disk 1---> SLES-11-SP4-DVD-i586-GM-DVD1 (Bootable) into USB by using utility- Refus and made it as a bootable USB.
will that be suffice to install OS ? or do I need to dump Dsik 2---> SLES-11-SP4-DVD-i586-GM-DVD2 (NonBootable) into USB ?
I really appreciate your valuable feedback over this.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
