How many suse discs do I really need?


I have isos for suse 9 pro. How many of the suse disks do I really need to press to minimally install it (and just download everything else I want later)?

Or do I really need to press all 6 discs?

(I don't want to do ftp install. )

I think you can get away with the first disc, maybe two.
can't remember, definitely not all of them.

it of course depends on what you install. never really did a standard install of suse, i always go in and add and remove stuff from the install so i end up using all 5 disks
