Hi all:
I've just finished my long term evaluation of Linuxes for AMD64 and Suse 9.0 won*. When I went to the Suse web site to but a copy I was surprised to find that Suse 9.1 will be available next month.
Now I have 2 questions:
1. Should I get Personal or Professional? The descriptions imply that the x86_64 stuff is only in professional.
2. Whichever I get, will I be able to upgrade my installation in place or will I have to reinstall? I'm pretty sure in-place upgrading is supported but I didn't see that explicitly stated anywhere. Or I overlooked it.
A little OT, but I'd be hoping to be able to upgrade it with apt next time...
apt cannot do all the things that rpm can do. Especially package renaming and splitting is difficult to do with apt...
Erm... What do you mean?? Apt is just for managing lists of packages, rpm has a bit different purpose, doesn't it? (especially since I use both at the same time with SuSE?)
