Virtually the only time I use the full DVD is in the rare case that I wish to install without any network connection . . .
It can also be useful to have one lying around as a rescue DVD.
That works if you can find it, but all my PCs are multiboot, so I just boot something else to use for repair, which is much faster, especially counting the time it takes to locate and identify that rescue media . . . True, and also another argument in favor of doing fresh installs instead of "zypper dup." Except you still need something else when GRUB fails. Fortunately, that is much more rare than it used to be. -- Bob
