All those repos will stop producing things for 13.2 in a matter of weeks if not days.
Sorry, but I also think that installing 13.2 now is senseless, except for testing or proving a point.
It's senseless unless you want a machine that JUST works. I will be using the repos described above for my 13.2 installations for the foreseeable future.
Then make sure you make a local mirror copy of all the repos you may need now and in the future, because they will be deleted soon, if not already.
I installed Leap 42.2 this morning and it was a nogo for me.
First, in the expert partitioning, for every partition I setup (ext4) upon completion the partitioner barfed and spit out some message about debugging the problem (experts only) and had to reenter the expert partitioning for each partition I set up. Fortunately my settings were not lost and I was actually allowed to set them up as I did in 13.2.
Were you using labels for the partitions? This particular feature is broken in this version installer.
Then I noticed I could get to no virtual consoles during the install or even after the install was complete and at the graphical login screen. What's up with that?
That's weird.
Then when I logged in I get a black screen with a mouse cursor. Mouse buttons do nothing and had no desktop at all.
Come on. Install problems? Dead machine after install? IMHO, Leap should be more stable than this. It's like I was back in the SuSE 7.0 days. No thanks.
Something went badly wrong for you. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
