Suse 7.3 on an Intel system?

How do I install Suse 7.3 on my Intel P3-933? The site http://www.linuxiso.org/suse.html tells me that I can't install on an Intel/AMD chipset computer. I have downloaded all 5 isos for Suse 7.3, and am now wondering what to do since I change my boot up in the bios to hit the CD first and when I have Disk 1 (Suse) in the cd rom drive and reboot, it just ignores the CD. Any ideas?

Suse 7.3 is quite good on Intel... By the way: mine runs just fine on an AMD K6-III and Athlon. Andre G-

You downloaded for the Sparc system, you want the intel/pc iso, try tucows at http://linux-dfw.tucows.webusenet.com/ system/preview/73988.html click on i386 Stable 7.1 it is only a single cd demo though, if you want the full, multiple cd version you will have to buy it. There are also other linux distributions besides Suse.
