Any opinions, observations, or pit-falls, in upgrading an 11.2 install to 12.1?
depends of what is in your install. But in my own situation, I wouldn't try it but do a fresh install
Don't listen to him. Do an upgrade as real man do it! ;) Honestly, upgrades work quite well. I've done so for several openSUSE 11.4 systems an some 11.3. Some via zypper from inside the running old system and some by booting the install kernel - the file is named linux - and initrd from inside the /distribution/12.1/repo/oss/boot/$ARCH/loader/ directory at http://download.opensuse.org/ http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Linuxrc describes how to pass settings to the installation environment. But before you start ensure to read http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Most_annoying_bugs_12.1 Have a lot of success!
