How many unsuccessful DVD installations? 10.2


I was noticing people are saying they succeeded to install via the 5 CDs and not the DVD, so I am wondering how many people succeeded, and how many didn't.

Also, does who didn't, was it with a DVD downloaded via Torrent or via HTTP from opensuse?

did you torrent or http download it? I will probably format my drive and do a fresh install, just keep the /home partition untouched not to lose my documents and downloads.

HTTP from opensuse

HTTP DVD worked for me 1st time. Second time, too. (Why can't I learn to leave well enough alone???)
