You can of course modify your configuration and add or remove packages as you wish!
The minimal install was over 1gig.
Hmm, this is unusual. Maybe you did not replace one package selection with another but added it to the original one?
second,. I tried making a boot disk using rawrite the way SDB mentions: first switching to my CD rom drive,,then typing in rawrite /disks/eide01 but nothing,..then I copied rawrite to my c: drive so its in my path...and typed again rawrite e:\disks\eide01 E: being my CD drive and its ask for a source file name...
I have to tell ya,...im kind of stumped here,..what am I not understanding here?
Try to enter the full path "e:\disks\eide01" there again.
and last,..like RH has /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 which holds the ip address and subnet..etc,..what file under SuSE6.3 houses all the ip info ..........
This file is called /etc/rc.config. The routing information is in /etc/route.conf
and last question
I thought you already had a last one :)
is the conf.modules file the same as RH,..i mean do I only need to add alias eth0 smc-ultra alias eth1 tulip
the reason why im asking is because ive backed up most network config files,..since I was told most are the same
Yes, modules.conf has the same functionality.

I have suse 6.2, and I am able to install the packages I want. Maybe you are using Yast2 with 6.3?
