The following was posted on http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2008-02/msg00265.html ------------------------------------------------------ Use as such: xdelta patch Delta-Alpha2-20080212-GNOME.iso \ openSUSE-11.0-Alpha2-GNOME-LiveCD-i386.iso latest.iso ------------------------------------------------------ Therefore the iso files listed on ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/FactoryLiveCDs are actually delta iso files from the last opensuse11.0-Alpha2 Live CD. If you want to use the new delta iso files: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/FactoryLiveCDs/Delta-Alpha2-20080212-GNOME.iso ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/FactoryLiveCDs/Delta-Alpha2-20080212-KDE.iso You need to download the original Live CD and perform a xdelta patch. http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0-Alpha2/iso/cd/openSUSE-11.0-Alpha2-GNOME-LiveCD-i386.iso http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0-Alpha2/iso/cd/openSUSE-11.0-Alpha2-KDE-LiveCD-i386.iso Hope this helps. Enjoy! They can still be used!!!

Use as such:
xdelta patch Delta-Alpha2-20080212-GNOME.iso \
openSUSE-11.0-Alpha2-GNOME-LiveCD-i386.iso latest.iso
——————————————————

Therefore the iso files listed on ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/FactoryLiveCDs
are actually delta iso files from the last opensuse11.0-Alpha2 Live CD.

If you want to use the new delta iso files:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/FactoryLiveCDs/Delta-Alpha2-20080212-GNOME.iso
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/FactoryLiveCDs/Delta-Alpha2-20080212-KDE.iso

You need to download the original Live CD and perform a xdelta patch.
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0-Alpha2/iso/cd/openSUSE-11.0-Alpha2-GNOME-LiveCD-i386.iso
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0-Alpha2/iso/cd/openSUSE-11.0-Alpha2-KDE-LiveCD-i386.iso

Hope this helps.
Enjoy!
