I’ve tried unetbootin, but it doesn’t support opensuse 11.2.
There is only 11.1.

Hi
I don’t think the version your installing makes a difference? I’ve used
the linux version with 11.3?

Hi
Booted into windows on my netbook, you don’t need to select a
distribution, just select the second one down which is use an image,
then browse to your iso image.
