zero0w Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 Departing from its past practice of not providing ISO images for free download, SUSE has released a complete, bootable, and installable ISO image of SUSE LINUX 9.1 Personal: http://www.osnews.com/comment.php?news_id=7425 Note: This is not the same as those unofficial ISO from any kind of P2P network, which is not endorsed by SuSE at all. The GPL license requires free distribution of source code, not the binaries; so it is not clear what's the status those unofficial ISOs inherit currently. However FTP install is always available as an alternative to SuSE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linux_learner Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 ya know, i hadnt read anything about this, but i had seen this on the ftp servers. naturally knowing suse's policies, i was a bit confused. the server i typically go to is ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub and the 9.1 personal iso is there. it is only one iso.

tyme Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 Utah for me: ftp://suse.cs.utah.edu going at 172 for some reason, carroll wouldn't let me download it...she told me i didn't have permission? stupid server... (carroll is the name of the PSU server that i download from) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 A lot of times, carrol only lets you in certian times of the week if you don't have an acount. Atleast from my past experince downloading iso's :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 carroll get's loaded up a lot. She doesn't seem to be an official mirror for anyone, but she only normally allows 75 FTP users (even lower during business hours) and like 25 http. So, she gets filled easily, and doesn't let anyone else in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 What can be installed in this one cd? It will be nice to get a somewhat bare suse running and getting the rest of the packages via ftp.. Surely it is a lot easier than the old ftp install scheme suse has been using.

bvc Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 (edited) from my minimal experience with suse I'd say all you'll get is the sys+kde. BTW, I just did my first actual ML-10-OE install.......all the others were betas or CE....I d/k what everyone is complaining about....everything works for me .....execpt xp, but that's PM8/Win98/and the end users fault. Oh, I'm OT Edited June 21, 2004 by bvc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero0w Posted June 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 BTW, look into the rpm directory, it has bundled Flash 6.0-81 rpm with the ISO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tbfirefox Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 This sounds interesting, I wanted to buy SUSE 9.1 a while ago, but I didnt know if it would be worth it, and before I only had a live cd to test it on. Just a few questions about this edition: Does it have ltmodem drivers included, and does it include the web plugins? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
