The DVDs of SLES and SLED are definitely not dual layer.  According to
the download site, the SLED 10 DVD is 2.9 GB (3193245696 bytes).  Have
you checked that you have the correct MD5 sum?  I had a lot of problems
downloading SLES initially, and it ended up that i needed to use wget
for Linux or FlashGet for Windows to download it successfully.
