Remember this is a newbie who wants the latest opensuse. A newbie who has no other PC hardware or facilities to clone anything.
I recently assisted in donating some netbooks where the hardware had no CD/DVD drive, 2 USB ports and an RJ45 network port. The single USB flash disk each student had contained their years academic work and so could not be used for a pen-drive install. No student had access to buy another flash disk, even if they had the money. Each netbook was pre-loaded with Windows Starter.
Why not donate a USB stick along with the netbook? The flash disk only needs to be about 1Gb - those are given away as advertising presents.
1GByte? Not even that is needed: openSUSE-13.1-NET-x86_64.iso 06-Nov-2013 17:27 284M
Although i wonder i you still get them that small ;-)
