Interesting. Now it is time for me to display my ignorance. Is there a description of images somewhere? Googling "suse install from images" was a bit too unspecific.

Using the 11.0 install as an example (normal, not autoyast), how many images are there?
openSUSE 11.0 has 11 images available You can see them on DVD1 in the directory "images"
One per RPM?
no :) One image per common usecase
If I choose to install from images, and I select various RPMs other than the default, what images would be used?
that depends. As much as possible is covered by images and the rest is done by normal RPMs. We have a lot of packages more than one time on the media. One time as RPM and then in one (maybe more) images again. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
