downloads

the latest relased ftp versions of suse linux are here:

platform   current version
ia32 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/current/ 8.2
powerpc ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/current/ 7.1
sparc ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/sparc/current/ 7.3
axp ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/current/ 7.1

please use a mirror site close to you (see section 1.1), it will be much faster.

if you are interested in japanese, i recommend to do the installation in japanese, then you will get a few japanese related packages installed automatically. if you don't do want to do the install in japanese, but want some japanese packages, choose ``detailed package selection'' during the install and select some japanese packages. of course you can always add cjk packages later using yast2.

some new packages and updates are available in my directory on the suse ftp server:


ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/ mirrors: 1.1

there are subdirectories for different versions and architectures. for example, users of suse linux 7.3-ppc should look here for new packages and updates:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/7.3-ppc/ mirrors: 1.1
