Looks like SuSE Pro 8.0 network install has landed on their FTP site. Use a mirror site! For the uninitiated, this is the full version of SuSE Linux Pro 8.0, without some of the commercial packages available in the boxed version. ISOs are *not* available, nor will they become available.

Unless you are planning to install on a handful of machines, do *not* mirror the entire tree, which weighs in the gigabytes. Do a network install by FTP; a typical installation will suck down maybe 700 MB.

Finally, if you use the distro regularly, consider buying the boxed set and sharing it with a friend. The manuals are top-notch, and the Pro retail set contains the complete distro on a DVD disk.
