I have been using mondo for about three years now. It has saved my 
system during the Linux learning process ( READ - trashed systems ) many 
times. Download the new .iso file if you have the bandwidth. It contains 
all the dependencies for most systems, and has an installation system 
for most distros. I installed on suse 8.2 with no problems whatsoever.

The ISO is updated on Sundays and Mondays.
