What should be my next move from here? Is it possible to rescue this install? If not, is there a way to obtain a copy of the package list and import it into a new, fresh install so I don't have to go thru all the packages looking for the ones I need (a time consuming and tedious process for me).
I found the y2log and the zypp/history log files which contain millions of lines of status between them and which appear to contain all of the packages selected. However, I was not able to locate a simple package list anywhere. If there is not list, anyone know the required format so I could possibly format, e.g., the zypp/history log contents into a suitable file?
Any help would be appreciated!
If all you want is a list of installed packages, try: rpm -qa > installed-pkgs.txt or if you just want the names (don't care about versions): rpm -qa --queryformat="%{NAME}\n" > installed-pkgs.txt You can do this from a chroot as well, if you're not able to boot the actual system.
From the sound of it though, the attempted upgrades may have already mixed up your package list - YMMV
