Yes it is, but Beta is meant for testers and developers only, it is
not meant for daily/producation use.

Add openSUSE 11.1 DVD as installation source, remove all the rest. As root run:

zypper dup

That is it :)

It is, will just take few days using 256kbps connection, and start all
over again if connection drops or the repo changes(factory is always
changing)

You can collect iso image from my office you need.
