Hi,

I'm asking here a question not related to factory directly, because I want to 
reach the devs. You
can reply on opensuse list instead if you prefer.


To keep it short (longer post in the opensuse list), I'm attempting to upgrade 
from 11.0 to 11.2 (32
bits) using the retail DVD, wich turns out it has only the x64 version. It 
offers to upgrade to 64
bit the 32 bit install:

    The architecture of the system installed in the selected partition
    is different from the one of this product" [continue] [cancel]

I said "continue", then I checked the package list. As far as I could see, it 
intended to replace
all packages with those corresponding to the 64 bits version. If this works, 
fine... but I was
afraid, and I cancelled. Not because risking data (it is a copy), but because 
of possible waste of
time. I thought I'd better RFC.

Has anybody done this, an upgrade from 32 to 64 bits? Does it work? Is it 
"supported"?
