Now a question to the list in general. Is what I am asking "OK"? I mean, am I stepping on any GPL toes by giving a self-burned copy of SuSE in trade like this? No money changes hands, used parts only. What do you guys think?
The GPL isn't violated by asking for payment, but the YaST license is, so I think you're out on a limb with that one. Note that the license talks about payment, it doesn't mention currency specifically. 3) Weitergabe Es ist untersagt, ohne vorherige schriftliche Genehmigung der SuSE Linux AG YaST 2 oder SuSE Linux gegen Entgelt zu vervielfältigen oder unberechtigt vervielfältigte Datenträger zu verbreiten. "gegen Entgelt" means "for payment", and a computer is payment, even though it's not universally legal tender.
