However, unless I am doing something wrong, the SuSE URL
posted by Per: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/s390/sles7-beta/
also does not have ISO images. I found a /cd1 and /cd2 directory
there, but each is many files, not one image.
Did I miss an ISO directory somewhere?

(I admit I have not looked at the Debian site, my very basic
experience with Linux has been RH at home, and the SuSE
at work, I will try to stick with one of those for now).

I also noticed that Thomas Geyer, in a different thread
("New Linux Kernel') said:

> I have created a new kernel, 2.4.17 with the timer fix.

Does that mean I should assume that the kernels available
in the distributions, are *not* built with that fix? Am I correct
in assuming this refers to the one that stops an idle kernel
from constantly waking up at very small intervals?

Thank you,
