Heads up for anyone else who network installs OS's and needs to deal with 
SuSE's new 9.2 distribution. They've merged the i386 and x86_64 
distributions onto a single shared DVD and source tree, and renamed the 
kernel and initrd for bootinig x86_64 to vmlinuz64 and initrd64.

That drove me *nuts* when I network installed an x86_64 and it turned up 
with i586 kernel, because I hand't configured the network tools to use the 
new package names.
