How can I copy correctly and prior to the installation the CD/DVD material to disk ?
 
Sorry,
but could you be more specific?
What is your problem?
I suppose you know how to copy anything from CD/DVD to disk, do you?
The answer will depend on your operating system; would you mind telling us?
Or are you looking for the 'correct' place on disk? As far as I know any place will do.
Or what else?
And first of all, look for installations guides (usually pdf format) on your CD/DVD and read them thoroughly.
 
In a normal installation you mount the SAP CD('s) (Export's for ex. ) then it will be copied to disk but when you must restart the installation you must remake the whole procedure : mount all the CD(s) one after the other and when you only have one CD/DVD device drive
 
Hi,
you didn't tell me what your operating system is .... [wink]
But anyways,
we usually do it like this:
Copy all CD/DVD to disk, one after the other, assuming Unix, to /SAP/disk1, /SAP/disk2 and so on, (or maybe use SAP's disk numbers instead of disk1, disk2)
and start installation from /SAP/disk1,
and SAP will ask for loaction of disk2, and so on.
hope this helps
