A Question For The Linux Geeks

I'm trying to install SuSE Linux 9.1 onto a laptop I have laying around, just to mess around with it. I was able to download the ISO from SuSE.com and have burned it to CD-ROM.

Can someone get me going in the right direction for doing the install? It looks as though I need a boot disk, but all I can find are directions for making one. Actually, SuSE says it takes 3 floppies plus one more to be a RAMDisk...something like that.

Apparently there are ISO's you can download to make the boot disks, but I've also read that these things have to be configured for your particular machine.

I'M SO CONFUSED!!!!!!

Advice, anyone?

Randy
