Remove openSuSE section?

I haven't wanted to remove the openSuSE section because I'm loathe to start another flamewar, but it seems out of place: the page says "This page helps you to put your Sugar on a Stick image on a USB flash drive under Linux.", but the openSuSE section isn't about this. The openSuSE SoaS image is already on the Sugar on a Stick page along with all the other images.

As the openSuSE section is not about how to put a .iso onto a removable drive, does anyone object to it being removed?

No this page is not about how to put an .iso on a removable drive, but how to run sugar-desktop on removable USB/SD drives in Linux. The openSUSE version is a .raw image that is burned to a stick by the dd command. It creates a usb stick that boots sugar-desktop with 55 applications. It is a valid way to access sugar and its applications. I personally think that it belongs here. [satellit 08/02/2009]
