    Is it an reasonable guess that this may be the final SuSE on CD? I would not mind if they use an optimised version of YAST that work an order of magnitude faster. Upgrading from 9.2 to 9.3 should not take four hours.

    Maybe if YasT used self-optimising code for the different Intel/AMD processors.

    The DVD contains both the full 32 bit and 64 bit versions. The CDs
    contain a reduced 32 bit version. The list of the 32 bit files that are
    included on the DVD but aren't on the CDs is (still) available at:
