Therefore I wonder, how large part of content is really changed? If it
would be fairly easy adn possible to pack only the changes (upgrade

There are delta files. If you have betaN, you can get the patch file,
run applydeltaiso on them (applydeltaiso <old iso image> <delta file>
<new iso image>) to get beta(N+1)
So if you have the beta 2 ISO images, you can go to (for example)
http://ftp.leo.org/mirrors/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.1-OSS-beta3/delta-iso/
get the delta files, and you'll have beta 3
Addtitonal:
I think I found the right document:
http://en.opensuse.org/Download_Help#Applying_Delta_ISOs
--------
That sounds much better at last regarding the download, which looks to
be total 582 M for all 5 b3 i386 delta-isos.
If I understand the things right, one has to merge (upgrade) each b2 iso
with the respective b3 delta-iso to make the complete b3 isos, which
still has to be burned on 5 CDs?
Is an Upgrade installation then ok or is a New installation necessary?
Maybe there also exist a document that describes this applydeltaiso
procedure in detail?
Thanks,
