Suse dosen't provide iso's that you can download and then do an install from, unlike most every other linux distro. You can make a copy of one of their ftp sites to a local machine and do an NFS install, or you can install over the internet from their ftp site. Easiest thing to do is download the boot img iso, its about 22megs, make a CD from it. Boot your machine from the CD you just made, select your network adapter from the modules list, then do a network install using FTP. Pick a mirror that is closest, it should be faster. This way it will only donload the files that are needed based on the packages that you selected during the install. > Hello. > I would like to download the latest stable version of Linux from SuSE, > but the directions don't make sense to me.
