    Re-download and next time don't compress the file.

    Better yet, download the latest version, Suse 10.3.

    I'm agreeing with Waterhead. You should have downloaded the ISO the begin with. If you want to see how to make a directory an ISO, then mkisofs should do it for ya.

    Also, you will want to stay current with Linux, so downloaded Suse 10 will be outdated. Go with OpenSUSE 10.3. Unless you meant SLES/SLED10...

    How did you compress the file in the first place?

    If you zipped it just unzip it.

    What you need to do is burn the iso image as an iso image on to a CD/DVD

    I was thinking that K3b could build an ISO file out of files and directories on your hard disk.

    Otherwise, here's a short HowTo using mkisofs that might get you through the process:

    You can see man mkisofs for more details.

    Here's a small knowledgebase I wrote...

    Code:
    How to create a .iso file from files in a folder
    
    If there is an archive file, unzip/untar it and place it in its own directory.  If it is not, place the wanted files in their own directory.
    
    Assuming the files are in /tmp/example/ -
    
    mkisofs -o /tmp/example.iso /tmp/example/
    
    This command created a file called example.iso in the /tmp directory.  It converted the contents of /tmp/example/ into example.iso
