I am having difficulty finding this information on the web site. I came across this: http://en.opensuse.org/Package_List which does not help that much, other than to verify that this equation is approximately true:
CD[1-5] + non-OSS CD = DVD
But there is an implication that some packages are present only in an internet installation.
It's a bit more than an implication. It's actually a fact. The present size of the 32bit repository is about 6GB. This includes i586/ i686/ and noarch/ . The x86_64 repository is around 3.3GB, but doesn't include any noarch/ or 32bit packages. Adding the noarch/ packages takes it up to around 5.4GB. As you can see, to make an image that will fit on a DVD+/-R (4.35GB), quite a few packages are going to need to be left off the DVD. Those are those that you'll find available through an internet installation.
