Is there any update on 12.3 status, given that a Beta party was announced? I.e., is there a more recent repository to test than 12.2, be it Factory or 12.3?
And do we plan to merge Factory:PowerPC into Factory proper like ARM is targeting? Or are there still blockers keeping us from doing so?
PowerPC for 12.3 is building in openSUSE:12.3 directly, in the ports repo.
Great to hear that!
This causes some headaches currently as the "preinstallimages" speedups for factory cause our workers to die (due to high io load we think, we never fully debugged it).
Factory is in a good state failure wise, and you should probably test from this right now until PPC 12.3 is build through.
I `zypper dup`ed to Factory yesterday and ran into a couple minor issues but am running fine now. * It hung on reboot after installation, had to force-poweroff. * There is no kernel-ppc64 any more, so my kernel was not upgraded. Yes. it seems we have kernel-default here. see: http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel-source/commit/config/ppc64/default?id... => `zypper in kernel-default` and change default Boot Loader in YaST * Quite a few packages stayed behind, mostly libraries. => zypper rm * The xf86-video-* packages have some ABI dependency issue currently. * Surprised that /dev/kvm didn't have group kvm, will check qemu.spec.
Cheers, Andreas
I have however not actually tried upgrading or installing.
