(thinkpads, for instance) there seems to be no way, even an
inconvenient one, for the user to reset a forgotten password.

I'm planning to do a network installation since I currently have SuSE 6.3 on my file server.

I don't plan on keeping Windows installed. Do you know what the ideal size that the DOS partition needs to be for the suspend function? The how-to doesn't specify how much it should. I'm hoping that it's a lot less than 500MB since the hard drive is only 2GB.

Thanks!
