problem with installing opensuse 11.1 from ntfs hard drive

I download the DVD iso from the opensuse.org site last night, and can't complete my installation yet. Someone plz help me out!This is the problem, occurred in step (4):
1)place the openSUSE-11.1-DVD-i586.iso in hard drive D (ntfs partion in windows xp on notebook);
2)autorun the iso using a virtual cd/dvd soft(powerISO), and install the opensuse installer(local);
3)reboot computer and enter the install procedure;
4)when the yast2 proceeds to System Probing and on the last item Initialize package manager, I get an error message about Unable to create repository ...;
5)I click on 'yes' and put the path of the iso manual, and get another error message:
Unable to create repository from URL 'iso:/?iso=openSUSE-11.1-DVD-i586.iso&url=hd:///?device=/dev/sda5&filesystem=auto'.Details: Failure to mount /dev/sda5 or /var/adm/mount/AP_0x00000001: Mounting media failed ( mount: /dev/sda5 already mounted or /var/adm/mount/AP_0x00000001/ bu
Try again?
and if I try again, the same problem come again.I had completely installed the 11.0 by this means(maybe something different in detail, I can't remember).
Please help me out!

Re: problem with installing opensuse 11.1 from ntfs hard dri
Are you actually running the linux kernel and making installer choices before then? If so if you CNTRL-ALT-F2 you will get a root prompt and you can dig around a bit.
But I'm not sure how much that will help, though you can then make copies of the YaST log files that are required to file a bug report.
If you can't get YaST to loopback mount the ISO file off the NTFS partition, then you can either, burn the DVD and install normal way, or use another Linux host, which loopback mounts the file and exports via NFS.Though I'm sure you have a good reason for installing off the disk image, it must be much less well tested than the Live CD, disk and net install options.

Re: problem with installing opensuse 11.1 from ntfs hard dri

Thank you for your advise!
I released the iso file to drive D and copied it to a usb hard drive, then began to install opensuse 11.1.
When it asked for source, I gave the iso file on the usb hard drive and it began to start yast2 and entered the graphic UI.
When it performs the initial progress to the last step and ask for the repository, I give the released files on drive D, it accept and give the next button for me finally.
