Hola. Tengo un problema, y estaria muy agradecido si alguien me pudiera ayudar. El problema es el siguiente: me baje la version 8.0 de Suse Linux. Pero no es una imagen iso. Como hago para copiar el Suse 8.0 (son mas de 3GB) a cd, y saber que archivos/directorios van en cada cd?
Muchas gracias.

I think your best bet is to break up the distro into 650 meg chunks so the files can be copied to a CD. Usually, the installation directory is around that so it should fit on one CD.
I had the same problem with Slackware 7 until I found the iso for 7.1.
You won't get a bootable CD that way, but you should be able to make boot disks from the files you downloaded. Linux supports very old hardware anyway so that shouldn't be a problem.

Hey, I just checked www.linuxiso.org and there is a link to SuSE (in ISO format) so why not grab that and burn it to a CD!!! Then, you don't have to worry about "chunking" it to fix your CD...

If you want the full version of SuSE, I believe you have to pay for it or borrow a copy from a friend...
