Appologize for top post, sent from blackberry. The only major issues I've seen is with how neteorkmanager and netconfig work together, and bug was opened. On 10/19/08, Jan-Olof Eriksson <jan-olof.eriksson@opensuse.fi> wrote:

If you have good experience with Linux, and you are ready for beta distributions, I would go ahead and say wait for Beta 3 (saves yourself hours of downloading).

Too late, im allready running beta2 :)

Yes, zypper dup would be fine, you may have to run it several times. Be sure to remove all except the factory repository.

Ok, i just wanted to make sure that there arent any huge issues with current factory packages.

Btw, i did zypper dup in KDE session, is that okay?

I do it from inside an xterm under the previous stable version. Ie, while running 11.0, I open an xterm, mount the partition that has factory, and do: #!/bin/bash mount /otros/test_d/ mount /otros/test_d/boot/ mount --bind /proc /otros/test_d/proc mount --bind /sys /otros/test_d/sys mount --bind /dev /otros/test_d/dev cp -f /etc/resolv.conf /otros/test_d/etc/resolv.conf echo echo " Copy paste the next line to activate prompt change:" echo "export PS1=$'\\[\E[1m\E[31m\\]NOT_\\h:\\w # \\[\E(B\E[m\\]'" echo chroot /otros/test_d/ /bin/bash --login And then, I run zypper dup without danger of crashing. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Okay, now it doesnt work. Using beta2, when doing 'zypper dup' i get this:

"osku@kotipurkki:~> sudo zypper dup Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Computing distribution upgrade...

The following product is going to be downgraded: openSUSE

The following product is going to change architecture: openSUSE

The following product is going to change vendor: openSUSE

No additional space will be used or freed after the operation. Continue? [YES/no]: yes "

It does that all over again.
