As alternative the Live-CD images could be mastered in a way that they also can boot from USB (afaik they are not able atm) together with a small app/script to install them to USB - other distributions offer that. Discussion: #1: John Thomas (john_tomas) (2009-01-13 16:28:57) Official USB images together with a small app/script to install them would be extremely cool!!! Anyway, since you said "afaik they are not able atm" i can tell that there's 2 workarounds already please see: UNetbootin (http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/) wich is actually simple and easy Portable Suse (http://en.opensuse.org/Portable_SUSE) for wich there's also a very good toturial at PenDrive Linux (http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-suse-flash-drive-install/) Hope i've been of any help #2: Martin Schlander (cb400f) (2009-01-15 22:15:45) Just for clarification. The images should be installable, and preferably tested on top selling netbooks. Usb-images with only live capabilities "won't do". #3: Maksym Grytsenko (maksymgrytsenko) (2009-01-16 14:28:55) That would be nice! Lots of people already bought their netbooks, but the ease of installation is not always obvious #4: Andrey S (seld) (2009-01-16 15:12:02) This is a very good idea, since some notebooks don't even have a CD/DVD- drive (including mine), so sometimes you are unable to install from the CD and have to rely on unofficial live-USB guides. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305658
