Hi, I need to install openSUSE on a ppc cpu, the web site says its
supported but I can’t find the iso, is there ppc support still? or is a web
error on the image?

where does it say that it is supported in 11.3?
(its not, and 11.2 wasn’t made for the ppc either)

PPC support was dropped a while back I think after 11.1.
I have a server that runs Fedora 12 which is also the last Fedora where PPC is a primary architecture. If the machine survives past the support period of F12 I may have to switch to Ubuntu or Debian. I don’t think management will pay for Yellowdog.
Basically those PPC machines are dying and it’s not surprising that distros feel the benefit/cost ratio is too low.
