Um, SuSE 9.3 had an option like that, where you downloaded a minimal package which then pulled everything from the net. For example: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.3/iso/9.3-x86-64-Network-Installation.is o would work. If you find a similar file on the openSUSE folders, then you've got it. (Tell us, since I haven't searched for it by myself...)
There's a boot.iso file under <any-suse-mirror>/inst-source/boot that can be used to start a network install. I installed beta1 via network install and it worked just fine. The suse 9.3 network install iso does not work AFAIK. At least I had all kinds of weird errors with it, e.g. it couldn't find my harddrives etc. Bjorge
