Hello my ISP claims no throttling of Torrents. However 4 Gb by Torrent takes me 3 days versus 30 minutes by multi-connection using e.g. prozilla. So it's a flat out lie about no-throttling.

The point is that I can't wait 3 days to download 11.0 by Torrent. So is there an alternate way to get 11 alpha?

Thanks

Sorry when I did not dig deep enough into it, but wehat about using wget?

And by going for an Internet Installation youy only need one CD.

I'm happy to do an internet installation. Can you post a link to the one CD?

Thanks

Thanks for that. Am I thick or what? :lol: My ISP blocks Torrents. That seems to me on this link:
http://en.opensuse.org/Development_Version#Downloads
to leave only the KDE or Gnome one-disk installs.
Where is the boot CD that allows to install from the internet?

I don't think there is such a cd for devel version :-(

So, do you think this would work as an alternative full install:
Download the Gnome or KDE cd and when the install is over add the factory repo as a repo and then add whatever I needed from that via Yast. Is that too dodgy????

This is looking to be diminishing value

sure, that should work its not worth d/l the whole DVD when every alpha / beta is released ^^ when 10.3 rc1 was out, i just did kde cd and then added oss and so on. worked good.

Yes, this is the normal way I think most people installed 10.3. The OSS and NON-OSS repos are added during install by default.

Look also at this page (10.3) for more info how to add full sound and Nvidia etc. Worked perfect in 10.3. Maybe 11 is a bit different here and there.
