Quick review: Got a message about updates need to be installed. Installed the. On the next reboot the system is extremely unstable--will only run for, perhaps a minute or two before a no keyboard or mouse response hang. Was able to boot into text and used YAST to manually rollback the set of updates. Rebooted, but the system still hangs within a minute or two. It takes either powering off or <ALT>-<SYSREQ> r....e...i...s...u...b to shut the system down.
As I see it, I have three choices now. (1) reinstall 15.3 or (2) upgrade to 15.4 (3) go back into current broken system
Recent addition to this system: The current 15.3 system is on a "spinning" HDD. I just bought a new SSD. to replace the HDD.
Today I tried installing 15.4. The only thing the installer would allow me to do is to replace the 15.3 installation with 15.4. I selected the new drive, but the installer wouldn't proceed with the installation.
I can upgrade the current system, but, that leaves the system on the HDD. So, I carefully unselected all the choices, and backed out of the installation without making any changes to the existing system (beyond putting the new drive in).
I think (am reasonably sure) that if I unplug the HDD, I will be able to install on the SSD.
So, rollback didn't fix. Do you have suggestions other than: unplug the HDD and install 15.4 on the SSD? (migrating my data will not be a major chore, if need be)
why not clone the rotating rust to the ssd, remove the rotating rust and update the system on your new ssd?
was the system stable when you insert the sdd and have not done the update? if yes its a software update probem, maybe mixed up 15.3 and 15.4 if its related to the installation of the ssd its a hardware problem. i would do the following steps: remove the ssd. if stable fine. if not we have a softwareproblem, in both situations make a update to the old hdd (from commandline -> zypper) check that you do not have any repos from 15.3 enabled. then it !should! be stable. if stable insert the ssd again, if stil stable "dd" the hdd to the ssd, remove the hdd check if it boots (it depends on your settings bios + drives names in fstab and some other things), if not report again, simoN -- www.becherer.de ----------------------------------------------- - Das ist die vorlaeufig endgueltige Version! - Herbert C.
