Hi,
pull the boot.iso from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/x86_64/9.2/boot/ or a mirror. That should give you what you are looking for.

Anyone know where I can find a bootable 9.2amd64 CD so that I can install it (network install) on an AMD64 system that does not have a DVD drive?
someone graciously made one for 9.1, but I forgot who.
