[CLUE-Talk] SuSE install

[Grant Johnson]

There are not ISO's, but....  If you download the floppies, and then do an 
install via FTP, pointing at the SuSE servers, it works great.  I bought 
6.2 and 6.4.  After installing from the CD, the update tool seemed to 
replace 3/4 of the distro with stuff from the FTP site anyway.

One little bug in the install from FTP, during install, you have no DNS, so 
you have to know the IP address of ftp.suse.com, as well as 
/pub/suse/i386/current for the directory.  You can also use this info to do 
an upgrade to 7.
