there are a lot of ways to install openSUSE. don't you have any usb port? you can stick there any support you want to supplement a cd.
My Wallstreet Powerbook doesn't. And I haven't had the extra $$ to get a card with it. Nor do I really need USB on that machine to begin with.
I recently installed opensuse on a small computer unable to boot from cd (don't even think of dvd's!). It could only boot floppies. do you want 11 to be available on floppies?
No. Buy 5 CD's vs 2500 floppies is a big difference.
I could install an old suse floppy version, copy the necessary files of the new one and boot from grub this new one. all the rest from usb or cd
I have old versions of SuSE. I need to install the new versions. You can't run Firefox v2.x with SuSE v8.1. I tried. Too many unresolved dependencies.
and newbie dont use such hardware with new distros. ask them to install vista :-)
Here we go again. More condencening against the newbies. That's really going to get them to try something better. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
