@J Leslie T: Well, that looks interesting, looks basic enough that even I could follow how to do it . . . . My question is if that relates to the Leap 15xx series . . . but there might be some issue with using that for getting to Leap 16?? In that 16 seems to be a hybrid of distros . . .??? If, traditionally it has been so simple as to just edit the repos to get from say 15.4 to 15.5, as could be done . . . why now was the guidance to either do fresh install, or wait until Beta, and so forth??? But, if indeed it is so straightforward as to use #zypper --releasever=16.0 to get the repos tuned up in what looks like should be a TTY, then that could be helpful to getting into Leap 16 in the Alpha phases of its growing process . . . a time saver, etc. F
