After changing the paths ;)
I thought 11.3 RC2 'installed' 11.3 repos. I will have to see when I get home as that is where that machine is. So it is the same as before where I have to remove them by hand and find out what the new ones are and add those by hand? I am now doing an update of an 11.1 system to an 11.3 system, via the install DVD. It removed the existing repos and is installing the needed packages and removing those that are no longer valid. The install continues. I will let you all know if the resulting system is a happy system. But so far all looks good. If this works, perhaps I will just do the same with my 11.3 RC2 system. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.

Ah, I read "11.2" instead of "11.3 RC2" ;) You can just run "zypper dup", Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

You must be a mind-reader, because that's the question that I wanted the answer to! :) Cheers, Dave

But another poster said he just did 'zypper up' Which is right? Do I still have to disable packman for example? Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

There are some subtle differences, for a distribution upgrade, I propose to do "zypper dup". There are some corner cases that zypper up handles different.
Which is right? Do I still have to disable packman for example?
I'm not sure about that one, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

At least for now, factory and 11.3 should be identical I think. So try zypper in zypper; zypper dup Then do a "zypper lr" to find your main repos, and "zypper lr <oss> <non-oss> <update>" to verify that the repos point at the final 11.3 repos. I did not realize it was supposed to work, but its easy enough to test. And if not, you obviously should correct them unless you want to move to factory when it unfreezes.

I've done exactly on this way: 1) Adjust repositories to point to 11.3 update; oss; non-oss and disable Factory or other non standard repos 2) run zypper ref 3) wait cache refresh be completed 4) run zypper dup; agree the licence and go to drink a beer or more if you have a slow internet :-) Cheers, -- Marco Calistri <amdturion> When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on. -- Franklin D.

I usually don't remove it from the list of repos; expecially Factory, Nvidia, Java, Packman... Since I always could switch them back if I wish or need.

Gee. Yes, I did very much that when I upgraded from 11.1 to 11.2 HOWEVER There was a lot more support in the way of examples, discussion here of what repositories to use; discussion of 'wagon'; alternatives; wiki pages. This time rounds seems sparse by comparison and the upheaval at the wiki has me confused - and I suspect a few others by the questions in this thread. So: * Is Wagon or similar up and working? * Is there a (repaired) wiki page specific for this upgrade? * Can we get an 'all in one guide' as opposed to these snippets of "Well it worked fine for me...". a guide that includes all the branching paths of alternatives and recovery from the various "Opps" events that might be encountered (such as running out of disk, making sure you flush the cache and so forth). -- Almost all quality improvement comes via simplification of design,manufacturing, layout, processes, and procedures. -- Tom Peters -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

This time rounds seems sparse by comparison and the upheaval at the wiki has me confused - and I suspect a few others by the questions in this thread.
So:
* Is Wagon or similar up and working?
Yes, but note the big warning at: http://old-en.opensuse.org/Wagon As of now, that warning still applies.
* Is there a (repaired) wiki page specific for this upgrade?
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:System_upgrade But the Wagon page has not been migrated to the new Wiki apparently, so the Wagon links from that page are dead links. :( And I gather the SDB namespace is not part of the default new wiki search, so many will miss it.
* Can we get an 'all in one guide' as opposed to these snippets of "Well it worked fine for me...". a guide that includes all the branching paths of alternatives and recovery from the various "Opps" events that might be encountered (such as running out of disk, making sure you flush the cache and so forth).
Good luck on that! Maybe http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:System_upgrade will be updated as people find issues. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
