By booting the big ISO, be it on a DVD or on a USB stick, you can install the distribution, or, choose to upgrade an existing one. Of course, after the system offline upgrade, you have to do an online update to install all patches made since release date. Hmm. Suppose I load the ISO onto a USB stick and make that bootable. Actually, you just copy the ISO into the stick:
cp opensuse.iso /dev/sdb
that's all. It is already bootable.
Hi It didn't work here. Still, not a problem. We needed imagewriter. You just drop it into the window. Also, you have to set it not to boot from the laptop. That's much more of a pain.

Is there a better way? Well, distros can be optimized for that use. You have to reduce the number of writes, for instance. Syslog and others.
Bitter experience not to recommend it. As soon as you start writing to it it fails. HTH -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
