I just recently downloaded SuSE 9.0 via FTP. Does anybody know how or have any references on how to burn this folder to CD or DVD. I would like to burn the folder to DVD. However, the folder is >7.7GB, so it won't fit on one DVD. My main problem is deciding where I am supposed to partition the file distrobution. My best guess would be under the /suse subfolder, because that's where all the installation packages reside.

Look for the src.rpms and have them burned on a different disc. -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless

Frankly, I would advise coughing up the silly amount of money SUSE want for their "Professional Update"- You (Should) Know It Makes Sense". Count in your time, bandwidth, cost of media, etc., etc., and then consider that amount of value given to SUSE to encourage development- remember "Free as in Speech, not Free as in Beer!". Terence
