Its usually better to wait for the release announcement. When the official release announcement is out, all the mirros will have synced properly causing less problems later. Posting release announcements before the official release can cause mirrors to overload and prevent others from syncing with the main mirrors.
Anyone know where to find the 10.1 dvd torrent? All I can find is the 5 cd version.
There is no DVD isos available yet. I guess they will be downloadable later today after the announcement. People have already managed to get opensuse.org out of the picture and the same thing with some of the mirrors.
But instead of 6 cds I would really like to download the dvd, but its not that time yet
where is the 6th CD; I only see 5CD's. and what is the 6th CD: ??prop software???
Onjoo, thanks for the heads-up, and also giving the link to the torrent cd's.
SL
and oh, the opensuse website is down, being trying for the last hour.

You can make your own dvd from the cd isos using the makesusedvd app.
But if I dont have a linux system running or like in my situation not enough free space to download the 6 cds and convert them to a dvd -> thats pretty hard
Dont like this info at all, but i guess I have to live with it
As AJ posted : "DVDs will be available for download from Thursday, May 18. "
From mailing list, the official announcement by Andreas Jaeger
"Hi all,
After lot of work and several delays, we proudly announce the
availability of SUSE Linux 10.1. In tribute to 42 and as today is the
fifth anniversary of the death of Douglas Adams, we dedicate this
release to him.
It can be downloaded as described below and on http://download.openSUSE.org in x86, x86-64, and ppc versions -
both via ftp from our mirrors and bittorrent. We'd appreciate if you
use bittorrent to share the download with others.
Initially we offer as ISOs the 5 CD open source version plus our
add-on CD with proprietary portions, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader,
RealNetworks RealPlayer, and Sun Java Runtime Environment. DVDs will
be available for download from Thursday, May 18.
Additionally two ftp trees are available - one with only open source
packages and one with non open source packages. The open source tree
contains packages build from more than 3100 source RPMs.
As usual, we ship all the latest open source packages available at the
time. But we want to give special mention to Xgl for 3D acceleration
on the desktop (http://www.opensuse.org/xgl), NetworkManager for
getting painless wifi access everywhere, the completely open source
AppArmor 2.0, and the full integration of XEN 3 in YaST.
We'd like to thank you all for testing heavily, reporting bugs, giving
feedback on mailing lists, etc., and in general for supporting and
participating in creating SUSE Linux 10.1.
Have a lot of fun!
Michael, Adrian and Andreas
P.S.: Here're all the details for downloading:
SUSE Linux 10.1 is offered via bittorrent and via normal download.
Please use a mirror or the download.opensuse.org URL which directs you
to a mirror.
The distribution comes with 5 CDs. You need:
* CD1 only for a minimal text installation (English)
* CDs 1-3 for a default KDE or GNOME installation in German or English
* All 5 CDs for other selections
We have put delta ISOs from both RC1 and RC3 on the server, please
check any mirror for details, we're not listing them below.
