Pessoal, mandei um email para o pessoal da Suse, e ap�s uma semana obtive resposta, que segue logo abaixo.
Para resumir, � perfeitamente legal usar, copiar e at� distribuir as imagens ISO, a restri��o que a licensa do YaST imp�e � que n�o se pode VENDER as c�pias.

Dear SuSE Customer,
thank you for your request:

I need some information about your distribution policy regarding to Suse Linux 8.1:

- Installing a copy of my friend (who actually bought Suse Linux 8.1 Professional) in my computer is illegal?

It is perfectly legal.


- If a buy an original copy and install it on several computers in my house / office, it will be legal?

Yes, that's okay.


- Can I make copies of the disks to / from my friends?

As long as you don't make money you can.


In anywhere in your site (suse.com) this information is clear, and in the Suse 8.1 Professional media that I have access, the only information related to licensing is the GNU GPL and the License for YaST2, in which it says I cannot sell it, modified or not, without consent from SuSE.

Exactly!

Best Regards,

your SuSE Linux-Team!
