You can see the current progress at https://software.opensuse.org/newsite/ --8<--- Choosing Which Media to Download The DVD/USB Stick is typically recommended as it contains most of the packages available in the distribution and does not require a network connection during the installation.
The Network CD/USB Stick is recommended for users who have limited bandwidth on their internet connections, as it will only download the packages they choose to install, which is likely to be significantly less than 4.7GB. -->8---
That sounds opposite of what I would use it for.
I usually take the Net iso if I have plenty of bandwidth and the DVD is I don't, as the DVD already has most instantly available and thus doesn't need to fetch it.
Can you elaborate? I use the Net iso only if:
- I don't have a pre-downloaded DVD handy
- I'm in a time crunch to initiate an install
- my internet pipe is slow.
I can download the Net iso and burn it quickly, then do the interactive install steps and let the needed packages download over the next few hours.

- might it be helpful to use with install-option " autoyast=usb://path " after making " autoinst.xml " with " yast2 clone_system " ? regards -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
