OK. SuSE guide is updated to latest situation. The Xorg bug will be solved, or there is a known workaround which can be used, so I marked two short chapters as beta only.
The part about ethernet interfaces is true about the current situation (the 'factory' distribution), but the latest beta is still broken.

Yes, it should be possible now (was not the case just a few weeks ago), using 'factory' as your installation source. This should only download those files, which are actually installed on your machine. But using this requires a fast and stable network connection, as it's still about a 1.5GB download for a default installation. I always do a local mirror by bringing an USB2 HDD to a fast download location. I'm just downloading it now :-)
I would suggest waiting until the weekend, as factory mirrors are usually slow to catch up and are often inconsistent. After a CD relese, like due this Thursday, it's frozen for 3-4 days, so mirrors can catch up, and can be used as additional installation sources to CD installations.

Geoffrey, we need you to start an EFIKA Book now too! :D

We will need it. This is all based on the EFIKA (see Jhai Community reference - google it):

Image

We dropped 200 Euros in the Pegasos Book PayPall account last week - hope you got it. The EFIKA Projects should be creating a good deal of work and will need to be translated in a large number of languages. We will be providing you with a $5000 budget to get this started. We would like you to use the Team you have as they are proven to be reliable and diligent. This will need to be ready for the Power.org Developer Conference being schedule soon in Q3 2006.

R&B :D

Quite generous of you guys. I'm sure Charra and his team are up to the task.

Well, I've already started it :
see The EFIKA book - alpha 0.1 version
Of course, there's really not much at the moment and I will update it with the information provided this week on PPCZone on the various PPCZone thread.
But I can already start something with the projects list.

@bbrv : I've sent you an email for more details about the book's startup ;-)
I've also created a mailing list for the ebook.
