SuSE 8.1 -> 8.2 Problems
I just received my 8.2. I know, I was a little late getting it this time. I put the DVD in the drive, copied it to a file server on the network, booted off the CD and did a network upgrade. At the same time I received my SuSE 8.2, I also recevide the new Led Zeppelin live video DVDs. After I kicked off the SuSE upgrade, I put the first Zep DVD in the DVD player hooked up to my TV. Zep DVD is great! I came back, to the system where the upgrade was running, and logged in. I noticed a little green circle in the tool bar and moused over it, it said something about doing an online update, do I clicked it. Started the update, and went back to watch the rest of the DVD. DVD is really great. I still can't believe the talent those guys displayed back then. I came back to my system and rebooted after the update. I logged back in, and everything worked. SuSE ROCKS!

Yup, 8.2 is one of the cleanest releases they have ever done. I did one install from scratch, followed by one upgrade. I prefer the from scratch. Everything just seems to work right out of the box. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen

I agree with the comment above I too installed 8.2 two ways, one via the upgrade and on clean install, and the clean install was definitely better. I had a few problems getting some java stuff from a commercial vendor to run after upgrading, but when I did the clean install (on more than one machine), the application ran smoothly. wayne
