but as I said I do not look for the /best/ distro overall. I just
need reliability and some very, very basic things. Everything else will
be done remotely.


if you are familiar with suse already, consider the ftp install perhaps?
You will have the mandrake 9.2 and your ubuntu warty cd to fall back on
anyway.

I think you are right. I will at least go around and check if someone I know
has already burned SuSE.


Just to stick my oar in. I personally would stick with a debian-based distro (e.g. Ubuntu) as I've had very virtually no issues with my several Mepis installations and updates are a breeze with apt-get. At work we use Suse and 9.3 has caused more than a few problems with us. IMO Yast is too fussy.
