Welcome to a thread on the openSUSE-11.1 Newbie Installation stickie.
If you have any suggestions about the "Newbie" openSUSE-11.1 installation stickie, which is located here:
http://forums.opensuse.org/install-b...ease-read.html
please reply here in this current thread (and not in that locked thread). In particular NNTP users reply on this thread, and NOT on the locked stickie thread.
As appropriate, the mods and the admin can update that stickie to correct errors, or improve the guidance.
For example, i'm also pondering the recommendations from the 11.0 stickie:

... of course we all have our own pet things to do after a new install.
Typically, my very first things to do after a fresh openSUSE installation are
- get internet functioning
- setup my repositories for easy software installation (oss, non-oss, update and packman) [others to be added later only after one understands implications and how to work around problems that can crop up]
- update my multimedia (to have entertaining music for remainder of setup)
- tune desktop and install other custom applications ..
Whats the view? Should that (with more detailed but still simple instructions) be added as a page to the Installation/stickie, or as a different stickie, or a how-to ?
My view is it does not belong in the stickie for installation (but should be a how-to), but I concede thats sort of a border line call. I'm sure others see this different. What does everyone think?
Thank you for your input.
