 From previous posts, I gather that installing SuSE 8.2 on a PCG-R505EL is
fairly straightforward thanks to SuSE's full support for ACPI and such.

A few questions:

1. Can one install directly from the DVDROM drive in the docking station, or
must one do a network install (as I did with RH 7.3)?

2. Are there any significant issues with SuSE 8.2 and the PCG-R505EL of which
one should be aware?

3. Is SuSE the only distro that is "Vaio-friendly" at this point?

Thanks.
