Obtaining openSUSE 13.2
openSUSE 13.2 is available from the following locations:
- https://www.opensuse.org/en and then click the 'Get it' button.
- 4.7GB DVD installation - this is the most common download option and needed for conventional installations. (Direct/Torrent)
- Live-CD - useful for testing the distribution and is also very handy for recovery too as there is no repair system anymore. (Direct/Torrent)
- Network installation - installs the system from an internet repository or network repository. Only use with hard-wired Ethernet machines! Wireless cards can be very hard to set up if at all possible. (Direct only)
- If I have already downloaded an ISO, they are currently available at
\\thinkserver\Build\CD Images\via Samba/Windows File share. - These downloads are in the ISO format. They need burning to a CD/DVD, depending on which format you download. The image itself needs burning, not the image file. For more information, see Burning a CD/DVD image.
- Distributions can also be put onto a USB Stick and make 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. More info is available here.
NOTE: As of this release, 32-bit builds are being considered Legacy. Although still supported, they may not be supported in the future. Most modern PC's are capable of using the 64-bit builds and should be used where possible.
