Install Opensuse from Flash drive or Amovible disk

Hello,
I have a DELL D420 without optical drive and i want to install opensuse 11.3 on it, also i don’t have an external Optical drive.
I want to know if it’s possible to install OpenSuse 11.3 from a Flash drive or Amovible disk, and how to proceed to do that.
PS: is it a good idea to install Opensuse on dell d420: C2D ulv 1.2, 1gb ram, 60 HD ? it it’ll work well.
Thanks for answers :slight_smile:
Sincerly your’s
(sorry for my bad english)

A warm welcome to openSUSE. Your English is quite good IMHO and answering your question : yes it is possible to install openSUSE from flash. Read this article for specific instructions :
SDB:Live USB stick - openSUSE

I think it’s perfectly safe to assume openSUSE will run very well on the hardware You specified. If You like fancy graphics and desktop effects go form GNOME or KDE, however if You prefer speed than LXDE or XFCE should be Your desktop of choice. Don’t worry about making a bad choice now as it’s possible to install any of those after the initial installation or install from scratch with a different DE (desktop environment)
