View source for Obtaining openSUSE 16.0

[[openSUSE Leap 16.0]] is available from the following locations:

* https://www.opensuse.org/, click 'Leap' then 'Install Leap'
** DVD/USB installation - this is the most common download option and needed for conventional installations. (Direct/Torrent)
** Network installation - installs the system from an internet repository or network repository. (Direct/Torrent)
* If I have already downloaded an ISO, they are currently available at \\thinkserver\Build\CD Images\ via Samba/Windows File share.
* The ISO needs to be put onto a USB Stick and made into a bootable USB drive. This method completely wipes the stick and needs the computer to support booting from USB. However, this method makes the installation a lot faster than optical media. On Windows, the recommended method is to use [https://rufus.ie/ Rufus] in DD writing mode.
* They can also be burned to a DVD. The image itself needs burning, not the image file. For more information, see [[burning a CD/DVD image]].

'''NOTE: 32-bit builds are no longer available, only 64-bit is supported (most modern CPU's support 64-bit, late generation Intel Pentium 4's and all Core processors will support x86_64). If you require 32-bit, you must use the [[openSUSE Tumbleweed]] distribution.'''

'''NOTE: x86_64 builds require an microarchitecture level of at least x86_84 v2 (at least Intel Core i3/5/7 1st generation) to install as of openSUSE 16.0.'''
