Hi all-
I'm re-installing openSUSE on a new (bigger) drive. My thought is (after backing up my home directory) to use zypper to list all installed packages to a file and then later use that file (and zypper) to re-install those packages on the new drive.
Has anyone done this? What would be the zypper commands to do so?
- perhaps someone knowledgeable can explain :
- suspect this can be done , as root , running :
#yast2 clone_system
which will produce a file named "autoinst.xml"
- that file autoinst.xml can be used to do what you want [ i suspect ]
No. AFAIK it does not store the repository list, nor does it store from what repo was each package installed from. It only works well if you do not use any extra repo, like packman. Only oss/non-oss. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
