With 9.1 on the way, what have most of you found to be the best way to install it? Simply upgrade via YaST or a completely fresh install (wiping out 9.0 and reformatting, etc.)?
If the upgrade does not spit out a lot of errors then go with that (only used YOU to update/upgrade). If you have installed a lot of programs using tgz files or used apt then you will have a lot of problems and probably should use a clean install.
And how about a parallel install, 9.1 besides 9.0? Do not know how it works but it seems a nice solution, having a proper working system and a possible working new install which needs under circumstances some extra work before everything works properly.
