No disrespect intended. I would urge you to buy the boxed set because A) I find it less risky to have the setup on pre-burned cd's and B) If your a true SuSE supporter then paying at least 30.00 US/BP's isn't alot to help the company. They need the revenue more now then ever in the current economic climate.

I am new to SUSE Linux and have some questions:

1. I have installed SUSE Linux 7.1. Is there a simple way to upgrade to 7.2 without having to buy a new package? (eg. using the internet)

The easiest way would probably to either download the ISO of CD 1 and burn it. There's an option to upgrade just installed packages.

Last time I looked SuSE 7.2 ISOs weren't available. However, you can install via the Internet if you have a broadband connection. Expect to download well over 1GB though! This depends on your current configuration. All you need to do is run YaST1->Start Installtion/update and select Network (FTP) as source media.

I'd far sooner spend £30 UK on the update package and 7.3 is just around the corner (apparently).
