-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Well, I think I can say with confidence that the Upgrade from SLES8/AMD64 to SuSE Linux 9.2 works. The Update Installed System worked pretty well, actually, and all my major configurations were preserved. The only glitch was that it preserved a little too much YOU configuration, so the online update didn't work, still trying to update from SLES8 directory. That was easy to fix, once found out how, and the updates ran. mozilla fonts are a little weird (meaning large) but they can be tweaked by manually configuring its perception of screen resolution. The system is a Rioworks HDAMB, 3Gig SDRAM, Dual Opteron 244, and with a CD-RW *and* a DVD-RW. Video is a GeForce4 MX 440, ethernet, USB, SCSI and sound are the on-board chips. They seem to work so far, including playing DVDs w/ sound:-) (The sound had to be configured via YaST. The "upgrader" didn't pick up any sound configuration.) I was pretty nervous about doing this upgrade, and I set aside a long weekend to do it and pick up the pieces afterward, but the worry was not necessary. It only took a few hours, plus a a few hours for backups and taking notes on my current configuration in preparation for the worst.
