[opensuse-factory] updating Beta1
I am sorry to ask but it seems that I have missed reading about what URLs need to be used (by zypper) to be able to update/upgrade Beta 1. I have installed Beta 1 (32-bit) from the DVD and while during the installation process the test of the Internet connection failed and the 'update server' could not be reached, and the Release Notes, therefore, could not be downloaded, I nevertheless managed to find the way to 'enable' the Repositories in YaST's Software Management. (To cut a long story short, initially I right-clicked on the icon in the bottom-right of the taskbar and selected the Repositories option; after this zypper went away and came back to inform me that there were 847 upgrades to be performed and when I 'told' it to do the upgrades the whole sheebang sat there like a stunned mullet doing absolutely nothing at which point I terminated the process. Then I found the new place (!) where the repositories are 'configured' at which point Yast decided to inform me that non of the listed repositories are accessible - or words to this affect.) However, zypper, when "told" to check for upgrades, shows an Error for each repository. I am assuming that the name of the URLs has changed. Could someone please tell me what the URLs should be for the OSS and the NON-OSS are (and whatever else which needs to be enabled and their URLs)?

Nothing much to it: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-Factory-non-oss/inst-source-ext... http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory-debug/inst-source-d... That hasn't really changed though?

Thanks for this. I re-installed the beta and eventually found the repositories under Software Management by selecting the "Community" button. (Damn if I know how a newbie is supposed to find any of this!) Some 847 files got upgraded earlier today as a result of this - over 2 hours worth of downloads.
