Hi,
I'm having a problem upgrading 10.2 to 10.3. I have downloaded the DVD and checked the md5sum. I tried upgrading by adding the iso as a repository and the update site, and then running an update. This is how I did the upgrade from 10.2 to 10.2. This failed as it was impossible to resolve all the conflicts. While trying to resolve them all, the system became unusable.
So, I tried to boot from the DVD and repair the install. The install from the DVD firstly wouldn't recognise one of the video card (an ati) or the screen (19" widescreen), so it dropped back to text mode. The install then failed, and didn't provide any explanation. It just repeatedly dropped back to yast at the "Start Installation or upgrade" menu.
So, I saved the essential bits of the configurations and did a clean install of 10.2 (with reformatting the partitions) with a minimal system. This worked fine. I have updated 10.2 to the latest versions of everything and am now trying to upgrade as explained here http://en.opensuse.org/Updating_SUSE_Linux. It's failing. When I try to run any of Software management, Update or Online update, yast2 complains that it can't read the package files from the cache directory and disables the 10.3 repositories.
Does anyone know how I can complete this upgrade, or do I have to stay at 10.2 for ever!
Thanks David
You should only use the DVD, *or*, (not both at the same time) the online-install sources. If DVD used, add update, and install sources afterwards, and update that way. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
