Hi,
this is a brief heads-up concerning kernel updates: SuSE Linux 8.1 and 8.2
will have kernel-updates within the next few minutes (maybe an hour) on
the ftp server in the directories known for regular updates.
These updates are the first kernel updates that are installable via YOU.
SuSE Linux 8.0 has a small bug in Yast2 that causes some information in
/etc/sysconfig/bootloader to be unreliable after installation. This
information cannot be retrieved from the system, and manual interaction
might be necessary. By consequence, it is not reliable enough to provide
kernel updates for this distribution.
I will create directories in the kernel directory in
/pub/suse/i386/update/* with appropriate notices/READMEs there.
The updates for 7.2 and 7.3 are still about to be built and tested right
now. Some userspace update packages are necessary for these distributions.
We will publish an announcement as soon as all update packages are
available.
Thanks,
Roman.
