Chris Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 SUSE Linux 9.2 is now available for download as full DVD image or mini installation image for FTP installs.You have the choice: 1) If you have a DVD burner, you can download the file SUSE-Linux-9.2-FTP-DVD.iso (the file's exact size is 3363543040 Bytes!) and burn it on a DVD to boot and install from it, just like you would do with a DVD from a SUSE Linux 9.2 box edition. 2) If you have a CDR/RW burner, you may want to download the file SUSE-Linux-9.2-mini-installation.iso (size: exactly 67336192 bytes), burn it on a CD and boot from it to start the installation of the SUSE Linux 9.2 FTP version. The advantage over option 1) is clear: You only download the packages that you need: From the total of 3GB of the DVD image you might only need 1GB for your desired selection of packages to install. Also, consult the README file in the 9.2/boot directory (same level as this "iso" directory). Please verify the integrity of the downloaded file(s) using the md5sum command. ab648822abbd89906adb66f7cddd6bc2 SUSE-Linux-9.2-FTP-DVD.iso 7d70caf05f533bd4827fa3e485667146 SUSE-Linux-9.2-mini-installation.isoMore | HereTIP: Very much doubt you'll need all of that 3.2GB so download the smaller iso and FTP install what you need.However: Windows will have trouble recognising 3.2GB of a file.

Redhat Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 :( It was soooo slow I stopped.I just tried, it failed to install the Kernel :huh: Probably something to do with the 64 Proc. Might try downloading again, and if I get more errors, I'm going to flip. I removed Ubuntu for this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scuzzman Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Make sure you checksum the ISO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
