i installed it a long time ago so i don't remember the correct sr. no.

1 insert cd 1 (mk sure your cd rom drives ranks 1st in boot order )
2 choose graphical user interface
3 insert all needed info.
Imp- Choose Grub as boot loader. Choose auto disk partition. Or manually format the empty space as ext3.Please make a / partition and a swap partition to keep running -- latter not recommended.
4 remember ur root password
5 set date time etc.
6 set firewall details.
7 choose ur default setting i.e-PC, server, custom etc.( if u r a novice don't play with packets)

U can install SUSE directly from its image.
No need for burning it onto a cd.
