I thought I'd to something good by downloading the SuSE 6.4 evaluation
iso image from their ftp server but that one doesn't behave like you
describe above. It wants to install itself onto the disk and I haven't
found a way to boot into any kind of off-the-cd system. I'm afraid I'll
have to go download the 6.2 too....

Digital Cam.
