Re: [opensuse-factory] SOLVED - tumbleweed repoes in installation from scratch

Thanks Patrick for your information, I've changed the repos according to this. zypper dup went OK. BTW, I apologize for having posted the problem here - I was in a hurry then, so I hadn't looked for other options - I think the forums would be the proper place for the question. Sorry for the inconvenience. -- Regards Vagn Bjørno On 2015-01-05 17:49, Patrick Shanahan wrote:

I have an issue, though, with the documentation (https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Tumbleweed_installation):

I understand the section:"From Scratch" so, that following it will leave me with a Tumbleweed rolling release installation. But the repo list from my installation differs from the list in the section:"Upgrade". I have only one repo with tumbleweed in it, the other five are 'regular' factory repoes, whereas the list from "Upgrade" has only repoes with tumbleweed. Shouldn't the repoes in a clean install be the same as if I upgraded?

Am I missing or misunderstanding something? Should I both install from scratch _and_ follow the instructions in "Upgrade"?

What I find works best for me(!tm): You only need two repos for Tw OSS NON-OSS

Of course I add other Tw repos for specific packages related to my whims :^)

and Tw is atm *supposed* to be equal to Factory But at some upcoming date, to stay with Tw, repos will have to be changed from Factory. Supposed to be announced here. Simpler approach is to start go with Tw and ignore Factory.

I recently borked my system and to recover was forced to wipe and start clean. I used a 13.2 usb-stick and after finishing to inital boot, changed my repos to only Tw and did: zypper ref zypper -v dup

My recovery appears successful and now I am making desired adjustments.

Usual cravats apply :^), gud luk -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
