Go into expert mode or custom or something alike and just chose all the desktop packages then when it boots to X you can pick any WM you would like.
If I have the space I usually just install the whole shebang, but you can chose each package individually...

I attempted to install Suse 10.2 again tonight and it makes you select which desktop you want to install...Gnome, KDE or other. It does not give you a choice of installing all in order to choose which one you want to use at boot up.. :( Rob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
