Hello List
- is it possible to use Tumbleweed, to effect a transition from 32 bit to 64 bit architecture ?
my answer isn't tumbleweed specific, since I was able to do it on
regular release (and with Tumbleweed being mostly empty now, it is the
right moment to try it).
The way I did it is to use the DVD 64 bit image, boot the installer and
choose "upgrade". The installer won't detect the 32bit image, unless you
tell it to accept "unsupported" configuration (I don't remember the
exact wording). Then, you'll be able to choose your 32bit partition.
This is totally unsupported, of course, but as I said, I was able to
migrate some systems with this setup.
Good luck ;)
