For those of you who don't want to do a fresh installation, just use y2pmsh to upgrade ot the latests beta. It (still) uses the (old) YaST2 package manager backend and therefore is very stable and useable for an upgrade. (I'v used it successfully for the last 3 betas ;))
Here is a short guide on "how to upgrade with y2pmsh":
1.) Get the latests y2pmsh and yast2-packagemanager from Factory and install them using "rpm -Uvh y2pmsh*.rpm yast2-packagemanager*". Run SuSEconfig.
yast2-packagemanager is missing in factory.
Only yast2-packagemanager-devel is present, and yast2-packagemanager-2.13.15-3.src.rpm.
y2pmsh is now sufficient. It links against the old y-pm libraries statically. Ciao, Marcus
