Works for me if you instead go via "Downloads Home" -> "My restricted downloads" -> "betas"

> WARNING: There are UEFI firmwares out, which are buggy and using
>          UEFI on these machines can make your machine completly unuseable.
>          This is nothing we can fix or workaround with our product,
>          you need a firmware update for these machines.

> Known issues:
> - FF17: Homepage is not set
> - some old ATI cards have issues with radeon (KMS), especially on "RV
>    630/Radeon HD 2600 (1002:9589)" cards.
>    Workaround: Use kernel option "nomodeset" and radeonhd driver in
> xorg.conf.
> - UEFI/Secure Boot
>   - DVD images can be booted with Secure Boot mode enabled, but there
>     is an issue preventing correctly loading installer later in the
>     boot process (it might also affect UEFI system with Secure Boot
>     disabled). To workaround this issue, we recommend to dump the
>     ISO image on an USB stick (you must run
>     "isohybrid --uefi <name_iso_image>" before dumping the ISO image
>     on USB stick, otherwise USB Stick won't be recognized by UEFI
>     firmware properly). Only DVD image can be dumped to USB Stick.
>   - An inconsistency between YaST and elilo prevent proper installation
>     of shim loader, needed to boot installed system in Secure Boot mode.
>     To properly install a system on a Secure Boot system, for Beta1, we
>     recommend the following setup:
>     * disable Secure Boot, install the system (make sure to boot with
>       UEFI enabled and not legacy/BIOS mode)
>     * on installed system, in YaST / Boot Loader / Boot Loader
> Installation.
>       Make sure "ELILO" is selected as Bootloader and in
>       "Boot Loader Options", check "Support Secure Boot"
>     * exit Yast
>     * as root run "zypper in shim grub2-x86_64-efi"
>     * edit "/etc/elilo.conf" and replace "secure-boot" line with
>       "secure-boot = on"
>     * run elilo
>     * run elilo --refresh-EBM
>     * reboot your system and enable "Secure Boot" in UEFI firmware
>     * your system should now boot in Secure Boot mode, when selecting
>       "SB SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3" in EFI Boot Menu.
