Incorrect. You need exactly *zero* additional space if you install from network and your current system is a Linux version supporting kexec. You can even choose to format the whole drive in such an installation without any problems. More information about Kexec: http://en.opensuse.org/Kexec If that isn't sufficient, I can write a section in http://en.opensuse.org/Installation_without_CD about using Kexec for that purpose.
