Thread: How to burn your installation DVD. openSUSE 11.3 is out and many people are busy burning . A common source of future problems during installation is insufficient checking of the burnt media. I present a small bash shell script which will take care of the MD5-checksums and perform the actual burning operation. Prerequities: Needs packages --compat and wodim. You have downloaded the iso image for a 32 Bit or 64 Bit PC from your nearest mirror. I recommend to pick a mirror from software..org: Download openSUSE 11.3 selecting the "Pick Mirror" option and selecting your "Type of Computer". Then click "Download DVD" and copy/paste the link of the mirror to the command line in a terminal window. Mine looks like: Have a cup of coffee. When your download is interrupted for any reason you may repeat the command. Once the download was successful you are ready for burning. Copy/paste the following shell script to the same directory where your iso file is saved. Name it 'burn-iso' (without the quotes) and make it executable: Before you can run the script you have to do some configuration. Open the script file in your preferred editor (vi, joe, . ) and set the correct values for MEDIA and SPEED. Set MEDIA to the device of your DVD-burner. A burning speed of 4 works well for me. According to the type of your iso file (32-Bit or 64-Bit) uncomment the corresponding lines for variables MDSUM and ISOFILE. Here is the script: When the configuration is done insert a blank DVD disk into the burner and run the script as user root: Enter the root password when asked for it. The script will check the MD5 sums of the downloaded iso file and of the burnt DVD. This may take up to 4 minutes - be patient. Have a look at the script code to see how this is done. Have a lot of fun. Re: How to burn your installation DVD. On 2010-07-17 14:46, vodoo wrote: > > openSUSE 11.3 is out and many people are busy burning DVDs.

It will download using several mirrors simultaneously so as to maximize your bandwidth, including torrent d/u, and will run checksums on the downloaded image, and re- download any fragment with errors, so that in the end you get a guaranteed perfect iso image.

As openSUSE 12.1 has been released today I took the occasion to update my download / burn script again. 1. The script will download the current ISO file using aria2c. The user may interrupt the download at any time typing ^ and the download will resume when the script is started again. The download will be skipped automatically when the complete file already exists. 2. The MD5 sum of the downloaded ISO file is checked. 3. When everything seems ok the user is prompted to insert a blank DVD and press y . The ISO file will be burnt on the DVD. 4. When the burning process is terminated the tray with the DVD should open. Close it again and press to start the media check. This step verifies the checksum on the media. 5. Parameters to tweak: You may want to adapt the value of the variables ARCH, DISTRO, SPEED and MEDIA at the beginning of the script. It defaults to 12.1 and i586. You can select the desired architecture without changing the script by specifying the architecture i586 or x86_64 as the first argument on the command line. Burning speed of 4x should be ok in most cases, but make sure to set the correct device for your DVD drive. Default is /dev/sr0. 6. How to install? Save the script to a file named 'burn-iso' and make it executable: 7. How to use? Copy the executable script to the place where you want your downloaded ISO file. Then start it as user root: Introduction. openSUSE Education team is proud to present openSUSE-Edu Li-f-e (Linux for Education) based on openSUSE Leap 42.1.

Hello msix and welcome to the community! You can get the openSUSE 11.3 iso's from here: software.opensuse.org: Download openSUSE 11.3 You can't chose the 4,7 GB DVD because that's a DVD iso. But you can select "Live GNOME" or "Live KDE" which are small enough to fit on a CD. You can also install from them. The only downside is that you need to decide which you want. If you've got any questions, feel free to ask! View Profile View Forum Posts View Blog Entries View Articles. Re: 11.3 ISO's for CD's? Yep just select CD on the download page. You will then have to decide on KDE, Gnome or some other desktop. The CD also allows you to boot and run the OS from it. View Profile View Forum Posts View Blog Entries Visit Homepage View Articles.

Re: 11.3 ISO's for CD's? There's just one thing I want to tell you. A LiveCD GNOME or LiveCD KDE isn't lightweight it's just without the other desktop environments. Because if you want KDE why download xfce, etc? That's why there are liveCD. And if you still want the full live DVD you can try it on an live USB stick. View Profile View Forum Posts View Blog Entries View Articles. Re: 11.3 ISO's for CD's? Did not do it for you. Want to expand that a little. You can get the CD in KDE flavor. The only real difference is the the DVD has both Gnome and KDE on it and more other packages. You can always install any other package you may want after the install via Yast-Software-management . Maybe tell us how much memory and the CPU that this older machine has? If you are going for a server why have a GUI at all. It just eats resources. View Profile View Forum Posts View Blog Entries View Articles. Re: 11.3 ISO's for CD's? If you want the options of the DVD, but without using a DVD you could try the NetInstall instead. It is about 100MB and when it boots up it boots into the installation (no live session) and gives you all the options the DVD offers for software. The trick is that you download a small image to get started, then depending on what packages you select to install, it downloads it at that point just what you need (and the latest version of them too ) me Friends don't let Friends wear red shirts on away parties!

You can install any one of them, and then add whatever more packages you need via internet. Or you can put the DVD in another computer in the same local network (via hhtp, ftp or nfs, I think), and install via network in the old one. It is documented somewhere in the wiki. There is also a floppy version. But you have to create the floppy images yourself - see //boot/i386/README for instructions on this. At least, the 11.1 DVD has this feature, I haven't verified others tonight. Carlos E. R.
