I know it is confusing and many people belive that this module is meant to do an update of the running system from one release to the next, but it is not.
Did you read the manual? It's chapter 2.3.4 "System Update" (SUSE Linux 9.2) in the big Admin manual.
What /is/ it there for, then, anyway? I don't have any manuals handy, and I sure as hell don't carry them around with me. Saying "Read the Manual" is, quite frankly, about the lamest response I've heard in a long time.
/more ranting removed/ Fine discorse. You are to be congratulated. You are slamming one of the few SuSE employes active on the list. note: Never read the instructions, that's not what they are for. When you do not know how to accomplish something or for some reason cannot accomplish something, *immediately* go ask for *free* answers from *unpaid* list participants. Under *no* circumstances make an effort to research your problems and, perhaps learn something that you *might* contribute. ps: To participating SuSE employes: Thanks for your efforts. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery
