> 285 MB without bare metal hardware support. All you need if you're never going to update it or you're going to take steps to ensure the installed workload doesn't eat up excess space.

the site states that openSUSE does not sign it's checksums or provide instructions on how to verify them Both claims are demonstrably false.

Incredibly, there does not appear to be any way whatsoever to securely verify downloads from respected openSUSE. Seriously? the author has no idea what they're talking about http://software.opensuse.org "For each ISO

My pleasure :) thanks for reading!

:) fair point..I'll let the YaST team know (or you could if you happen to be on freenode, they live in the #yast channel) Users know - YaST doesn't change stuff without telling you, that was the point I was trying to make earlier.

There is the graphical option, using http://software.opensuse.org and the 1-click install functionality there to add packages direct from OBS on the commandline, there is a plugin for osc (the OBS commandline tool) https:/

There is pretty extensive documentation on http://yast.github.io/documentation.html It doesn't conflict with other configuration management systems. I've used openSUSE extensively with puppet and saltstack. Many o

Testing packages, and testing that an entire distribution works with those packages on it, are two very different things..

the only one I can think of is the apache one. If you use the YaST apache configuration module it will warn you before taking over and changing any local changes. It actually does its best to do a merge of local changes and its own, but it&

YaST was written into Ruby, yes. These days YaST no longer overwrites config files, except from a very few corner cases where it really really wants to be in control of specific config files for very specific reasons. But if it notices loca

Yes, we share one test repo amongst all the openSUSE distributions and SUSE distributions SUSE use openQA for testing their enterprise distributions too, and keeping all our tests together and reused as heavily as possible really helps in a

Sure they can (and Fedora are already using and contributing to openQA) But you really need to be using OBS too in order to produce those builds in the fast, easily contributed way that we then (ab)use with Tumbleweed Of course, other proje

The search seems to be doing something weird at the moment.. There is a second "openSUSE Tumbleweed" under the "unsupported distributions" category, and that has the more up to date nvidia packages I'd expect If som

I'd say that's a fair assessment :) SUSE isn't your typical 'for-profit', and the nature of the relationship with openSUSE reflects that Thanks for the consideration
