Brian: There has been some talk of problems with YAST however I have noe expierenced them myself. I upgraded from SuSE 6.1 to SuSE 6.2 without any problems. When I upgraded the created the partitions again and formatted them accordingly. I am not sure what will happen if you upgrade a system from 6.1 to 6.2. I personally did not do the upgrade because of the glibc change. That has been my expierence. Christopher T.

As I usually do I did an "Install Linux from scratch" after a suitable back up of essential configuration files. I found it to have been the easiest of all my installs to date. Enjoy 6.2. VMT to the team at SuSE.

I had tried to "upgrade" from 6.1 to 6.2 but YaST didn't recognize my partitions. The following clean install of 6.2 went very smooth though.
