[Jon L Miller]

Are you doing a dual boot setup or are you blowing away Windows?

It's a new install on a Windows laptop.

Is this a new install, update/upgrade or an additional OS install?

I attempted to install OpenSUSE11.3 from a DVD, it came up with some kind of
error I ignored and carried on with the installation.  I stopped the
installation when it told me that I had run out of disk space.  I had about
170 gig free prior to installation??

Do I try again and note the error message??

I've been thinking of upgrading all my openSUSE boxes to the Tumbleweed 
repo.
