I have still not seen a good explanation of how you should install SUSE 10.1 on the website.
Therefore I have put this up on the wiki in plain sight:
'''BEFORE YOU INSTALL READ THIS:'''
The package manager in SUSE 10.1 is regrettably broken on most systems. To correct this you should do the following after you have installed SUSE: * Open Yast chose "online update configuration" , click next and wait until finished. * Press the updater icon on you taskbar/panel * If it updates, congratulations, all is well. * If it throws up an error. Close it. * Install the alternativ package manager/updater SMART. Read the how to [[SMART HowTO|here]] You probably also want to read about [[Using_10.1|Using 10.1]] and the [[Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs#SUSE_Linux_10.1_.28Final.29|Most Annoying Bugs]].
Do with it as you please. I think it's a start. We must admit our weaknesses before we can be truly strong.
I added some better HOWTOs and killed the SMART reference. Ciao, Marcus --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
