Is the network upgrade possible?
Should be. You have to configure a network connection. The installation medium is a repository in the network.
first time I installed factory on a non opensuse laptop, I got the usual (run time) yast network window to configure the network. This was very pleasant, making it from random terminal during install is pretty hard
but today, trying to update this install with an usb key (13.2 dvd) I was asked to configure the network, but only with an error message, no config windows, so maybe this particular setup is not that debugged
jdd
So it's not working then. How about the dvd upgrade. Does that work? Thanks.
The last upgrade to 13.1 opened yast, picked up the network and you could point and click your way through the upgrade. Have we now dropped that facility? Does anyone know? Maybe I am doing something wrong; e.g. 79Mb for an upgrade iso seems tiny.
The 79 MB is from the NET install. According to the Wiki it should be possible to upgrade using the NET install. But you should have a backup of your system. Just for fun I did an upgrade, using the Factory snapshot (20141102) DVD, of an older Factory system. It went OK, apart from generating a complete GRUP2 boot system with all my systems to choose from when booting. But afterward using the bootloader module of YaST fixed that problem.
So you used linuxrc? What did you put and where? Loke what is it? ftp? http? what is the directory on server? Previously Yast did all this. We seem to have reverted to having to be an expert to upgrade. L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
