Re: Why the hell 5 CDs? Why not a DVD install?



Hello:
1) I did get the MD%SUM from the mirrors... everything id OK.
2) I tried to use the script from an older version of SUSE to create a DVD
iso, from several DVD's... and it does not worh with 10.1
Too bad: DVD install is nice.
A updated version may be available?
3) In the past I did an ftp install: it took 7 or 8 hours: SLOoooow.
