    Here's how the CD's work on SLES 9 (at least what I figured out):

    CD #
    ---- ---------------
    1 SLES CD #1
    2 SuSE Core CD #1
    3 SuSE Core CD #2
    4 SuSE Core CD #3
    5 SuSE Core CD #4
    6 SuSE Core CD #5

    Unfortunately sometimes the refer to them as just the overal "CD#",
    other times (you have to look closely) you will see it ask for "SLEC CD
    #1" versus "SuSE Core CD#n"

    On SLES 8 you had a similar situations the first CD was a SLES CD, the
    others were "United Linux" CD #s.

    Hope this helps - Richard
