Will install a new TW system on the computer as soon as possible. I would like to know how to set the install routine to make /boot and /home partitions so if this happens again I may have a slightly better chance of recovery. Do I use GParted to make partitions first, or what? Tried that when I installed the old system, but it didn't work. Please advise.
Our advice will always be to forget Tumbleweed and use Leap. How many times have you reinstalled TW? Twice--once in 2019 once in 2020--that's the one that crashed. I installed Leap once. It does not have all the apps available as TW does, and it lasted only a couple of months and crashed
and burned, and I hardly even used it. Put Mageia on the box. Not as capable as TW, but nearly.
Leap has *everything*, but maybe in a different place than TW.
possibly, but a real stretch to declare it. it more than likely does not as some package *only* for Tumbleweed.
And others are available only on Leap :-)
but no one knows what Doug will want to install next nor where he will obtain the package(s).
Right. He has problems understanding repositories. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
