First...need to update the zmd packages if you are running openSUSE
10.1 (there are other updates coming that incorporate the working as
designed parts of SLED10 into openSUSE 10.1 - it's currently in QA).
SLED 10 will work, however ZMD does not like/allow unsigned
repositories. Add unsupported repositories via software management if
you are running SLED10. Not sure if this will be "fixed" or if there is
a workaround at present...I'll keep digging.
