This Thursday I downloaded and burn the DVD-IOS for openSUSE 10.3, 64-bit. This
morning I removed all partitions on my HDD and did a fresh installation of
10.3. Everything went fine, I checked the media and it was OK, I clicked OK
throughout the whole process, I didn't do any changes or additions apart from
changing the language from English to Swedish. The network card config went
fine, the connection to the Internet was working, I did the Configure the
Online Update thing and it went fine and ended with a "An update server was
added to your system" message. Fine, now comes the part where it suggests that
I should do an online update, first that one single zypp patch, then restart
and then all the other patches (almost 1 Gb).
But, no.
No, no, no. No online update. The installation just skipped to the next step,
which I think is creating a user account. The rest of the installation went
fine, though. When finished, I logged into the system, added the system monitor
to the panel so I can see what the system is up to, I let a various amount of
scripts run for the first time, at least that is what I think is keeping the
CPU and HDD so busy the first couple of minutes directly after logging into the
system after a fresh install. Then I logged out and turned the computer off.
After a while I turned the computer on again, logged into the system, started
YaST and checked with 'Repositories' whether I had any update repo? No. Ok, so
let's try to do the 'Configure Online Update'. It went fine, I clicked the
'Trust PGP key'-something and some more info was downloaded, but then it just
died with the same old error message I've been seeing the last week, something
about "wrong checksum for patch-fetchmsttfonts".
Why is this? Am I the only one experiencing this? Is there something wrong with
my computer? Am I doing something wrong? Why not remove that fetchmsttfonts
thing, if that's what causing all this trouble, and put a page on the wiki with
a couple of links and an instruction on how to install the fonts manually
instead? Why is one single patch, not even mandatory, stopping the whole update
feature from working?
