So I try to upgrade via usb drive to boot the 64bit opensuse 13.2 installer.
Upgrade of openSUSE 32 bit to 64 is possible via the boot-dvd-choose-upgrade-method. But it is not supported, and the installer will not even offer the possibility. You have to force it to do it, and then will then give a big warning of danger. You have to know what you are doing, and have a lot of manual work to do after the procedure. I and many others have done it, successfully.
Is this really state of the art that perfectly fine working and booting reiserfs partitions in 32bit opensuse 13.2 are unsupported or not being recognised or considered an adequate situation for 64bit opensuse 13.2?
Reiserfs is going out, and the fact has been known for years, like it or not. You can still use reiserfs partitions, but yast will not create one. I don't know if you can boot from it, though. I would not try.
Seemingly every day, I understand less and less of the weird path and road and opensuse is heading down to and the choices made by the project. Maybe I am better off with a different distribution after all.
Use whatever works for you. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
