With 9.1 on the way, what have most of you found to be the best way to install it? Simply upgrade via YaST or a completely fresh install (wiping out 9.0 and reformatting, etc.)?
Boot from the DVD/CD and select upgrade existing installation worked for a few of my machines (didnt do so good with fedora 2 though, probably as a result of a few of my 'tweaks'). The yast option is certainly something to try but I'm a bit suspicious of it due to a bad experience a while back. Doing a fresh install isnt really necessary unless you want to change your disk partitions and so on. Either way backup your home directory first. Regards, Ben
