[opensuse] How do I upgrade 10.3 Beta1 to 10.3 Beta2
I am not having any luck upgrading Beta1 to Beta2. I download the openSUSE-10.3-Beta1_Beta2-DVD-x86_64.delta.iso (via Ktorrent which is as slow as Christmas) and try to burn it with K3B. K3B comes up that it is not an iso image. Burn it anyway. Sure enough, it will not boot. Try doing online update configuration. Will not work, there is a bug on this. Looked at the tar.gz file, no info on how to impliment the update fix that I could find. The details CGI leads to dead end. Doing sofware management in Yast, it comes up with db locked. Delete the /var/lip/zypp/db folder and try again. It updates and comes up with the same error. There is no full iso for the beta2 that I could find, so cannot even do a new install. After doing all of this, I insert a blank dvd in the dvd drive, hald no longer comes up with a dialog box asking what to do with it. So, any suggestion on howto update Beta1 to Beta2?

Think you have downloaded the delta iso, that is the different between the Beta1 and Beta2. You have to link the delta iso to the Beta1 iso to get the full Beta2 iso. Se opensuse for further details. -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards Erik Jakobsen erik_ja@mail.tele.dk openSuSE 10.2 (i586) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Never heard of this or seen anything on the opensuse website about it, but will try it tomorrow as it is getting late here tonight and I have to go to work tomorrow morning. Art -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

That's because it's not an iso, it only contains the changes between B1 and B2 that nee to be applied to B1 to make the B2 iso. Ken -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

used the applydeltaiso and created the new iso and burned it to DVD. Boots now, but when I do ugrade, it comes up with audit-lib dependencies where it cannot find provider for such and such a version. I thought that was what the upgrade was supposed to do. It also came up with openoffice.org base developement package problem which I did not even have installed. Finally told it to ignor and that went away. So, what is the secret to upgrading or do I just give up and reinstall? That will probably go to shit also with my luck.
