What does zypper sl -d report about your repositories?
In the meantime I did an Update installation to M4 using a NET iso download and boot from CD. Therefore it is maybe not longer of the same interest, but the M4 update installation set up the following repo list (which I thought I had similar before, except with a few additional repos beside, Xorg and OpenOffice Unstable): zypper sl -d # | Alias | Navn | aktivert | Oppdater | Prioritet | Type | URI --+---------------------+-----------------------+----------+----------+-----------+--------+---------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | openSUSE-11.3 11.3- | openSUSE-11.3 11.3- | Ja | Ja | 99 | yast2 | http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3/repo/oss/ 2 | repo-debug | openSUSE-11.3-Debug | Nei | Ja | 99 | NONE | http://download.opensuse.org/debug/distribution/11.3/repo/oss/ 3 | repo-non-oss | openSUSE-11.3-Non-Oss | Ja | Ja | 99 | NONE | http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3/repo/non-oss/ 4 | repo-oss | repo-oss | Ja | Ja | 99 | yast2 | http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3/repo/oss/ 5 | repo-source | openSUSE-11.3-Source | Nei | Ja | 99 | NONE | http://download.opensuse.org/source/distribution/11.3/repo/oss/ 6 | repo-update | openSUSE-11.3-Update | Ja | Ja | 99 | rpm-md | http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.3/ The url http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3/repo/oss/ looks to be a symlink, because entering it in a browser automatically forwards me to http://download.opensuse.org/factory-snapshot/repo/oss/ A question here is what does really the last repo http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.3/ do during the Milestone (factory snapshot) period? I guess it doesn't update the packages to factory level?
2. How to upgrade to 11.3 Milestone 4 ?
Looking athttp://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3-Milestone4/ there is no 'repo' available, just 'iso' and 'delta'
Isn't it possible to use 'zypper dup' to upgrade from a previous Milestone to M4?
You can either update to openSUSE Factory or use the repository setup when you install a milestone, it is updated for each milestone (download.opensuse.org/factory-snapshot...).
See my old blog post: http://lizards.opensuse.org/2009/10/01/updating-in-place-from- opensuse-11-1-to-11-2/
Yes, I followed your blog procedure when I upgraded from 11.1 to 11.2. There is however something in that procedure I wish to use this opportunities to get clarified : The initial two lines say /
/After running my laptop for some time already on openSUSE Factory, I decided to update my workstation now as well to openSUSE Factory – thus upgrading it to openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 8. /
/But in the update 1b) at the bottom, i.e the following command is used
zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/ "openSUSE Factory Oss"
Doesn't that repo upgrade to that current Factory distribution and not to the M8 snapshot (developement release)? http://en.opensuse.org/Factory_distribution That is, shouldn't the repo instead be http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.2/repo/oss/ or optionally http://download.opensuse.org/factory-snapshot/repo/oss/ to get that latest 11.2 M8 developement release?
