64 Bit Linux From SuSE Suitable For Opteron and AMD64 Processors SUSE GNU/Linux 9.0 AMD64 w00t w00t w00t! Be kind, a Bit Torrent would be nice! Note this is info and links for downloading the FTP version, these are not the ISO's that SuSE sells, although the point release is supposed to be equivalent. Differences include

This SuSE GNU/Linux 9.0 installation tree is suitable for installation via ftp, http, nfs, smb or hard disk.


System requirements

You need at least 128MB main memory. To install on a machine with less
memory a (GNU/Linux) swap partition is necessary.


Preparation

o booting from CD

Download the iso image boot/boot.iso and burn a CD with it.
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/x86_64/9.0/boot/

Installation

Boot from that CD and at the bootpromt enter the installation source:

GNU/Linux install=ftp://ftp_server/directory

Remember to substitute 'ftp_server' and 'directory' with the appropriate
values (e.g. install=ftp://[IP-ADDRESS]/pub/suse/x86_64/9.0 if you're
installing from the SuSE ftp server).

Alternatively, choose 'manual installation' and configure the network in
the installation program.
