Factory is updated on our server again - and is synced out to the mirrors. We've seen a number of reports of about segmentation faults in YaST with the factory tree. There were two problems: * bad error handling in YaST * Wrong release in distversion in the content file The inst-source/content file should have "DISTVERSION 10.1-factory" instead of "DISTVERSION 10.1-factory-beta" (the extra minus was the problem). The second problem is fixed in the factory tree, the first one will be fixed soon. Therefore I advise to check that factory is updated before using the tree before installation.

Please excuse me if it is an FAQ, but how do I verify that factory is updated? I was trying to run net install from factory which was failing with error 134 (but after download of a 70+MB root image which takes a while). Is there an easier method? Thanks, -Kastus

Check the inst-source/content file whether it's correct as explained in my message, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

I checked inst-source/content on mirrors.kernel.org and it looks good. Thank you for the hint. When I try network install from mirrors.kernel.org it fails with the message: No catalog found at 'http://204.152.19139/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source' Does it mean that something is still out of sync on that mirror? Or network install from factory is not possible? Thanks, -Kastus

I just tested current factory - and it's completely broken, I cannot install at all :-( We're looking at it now, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

In what package are the description of the version and product? Because I can't register it, and if I execute: /usr/lib/suseRegister/bin # ./suse_release -a Product: Version: Vendor: Dist: Distproduct: Distversion: Baseproduct: Baseversion: How can I complete these options? I have installed RC3 (via updates from alpha 2). Thanks
