I upgraded from 12.3 to 13.1 using the "zypper dup" route. And there was probably an earlier upgrade to 12.3. When I boot I get:

/dev/sda6 is the root device. What can I do to fix the warning or is it harmless?

Upgrades between major versions (12.x > 13.x) should be done with a fresh install due to changes between versions. Also make sure that you have backed up all your personal files in case of problems. You could probably still use the personal configuration IF your DE is still the same major version.

This is not the case. I have systems, like 70+, which have been dup'd from openSUSE 11.4 up to 13.1 and will be being upgraded to 13.2, when I have time to evaluate and iron out the procedure. -- Later, Darin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
