I am looking for a guide to installing suse, is it simple as installing Red hat? just to boot from the first cd and than I have a grafical istallation interface?
I've used versions 9.0, 9.1, and 9.2, but not 10. All of the versions that I installed were very easy. Boot from CD 1 and you will see a graphical interface. You can let it use its defaults or you can do a lot of customizing. I've used a half dozen different distributions in ten years. SuSE is my favorite.
Sure Suse is simple to install. At the least is simple as RH.
After the install, configuring Firewall, printers, smb shares, graphical card/monitor/mouse, is *MORE* simple than RH, thanks to YaST, the SuSE setup tool, now a open tool.
SuSE is my favorite too. I am using OpenSuSE 10.1
