Someone must have asked this before, but I couldn't find it - I noticed that beta4 came with a -NET- iso:

Its for a network install for installing from a local directory on the network or from the internet.

Does it mean that the other media don't work for network-based installations? Frankly, I don't see any difference to network-based or local-media-based installation. So what's the difference, please? Thx Lukas

Okay - but I do that already today just using a mini ISO - what extra functionality does the -NET- iso give me? /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

AFAIK miniISO has been renamed to -NET-, there should be no difference.

Ah, that makes some sense - except the -NET- is a lot bigger than the mini? Well, I usually make my own mini of the first 40Mb of the full DVD iso. Still, a -NET- iso of some 150Mb is quite handy too. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

doest suse come with netinst miniiso for ages now? http://en.opensuse.org/Network_Installation_Source http://en.opensuse.org/INSTALL_Internet

Of course, I know the mini-ISO CD, it would have been enough to say: mini-ISO has been renamed to NET...

.. for 11.0, yes :) Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I would like to have a little summary similar to http://de.releases.ubuntu.com/8.10/ that could automatically be shown by the web server when listing http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/*/iso directories. It is trivial to add this via Apache configuration, so if someone could write a little summary in HTML I would like to add it.

Excellent idea - I was in fact also looking for something like that. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
