That your partitions are already formatted ext3 is helpful.
#Jbidwatcher plus
Plus you get to save some money, which is always a good thing - especially this time of the year! ) Upgrading has always been one of openSUSE's strengths from my experiences.
Then again, as per the recommendations stated already, if you keep a separate /home partition, and keep it backed up, you should have almost zero problems with either upgrading sequentially (10.2 to 10.3 to 11 to 11.1) without any data corruption or doing fresh installs every 2 years or so. Currently, SLED is at service pack 2 I believe, and SLED 11 should be coming out within the next few months. Like I said, if your concerns are more about long-term support, SLE is probably the best way to go. The main advantages of SUSE Linux Enterprise is long term support, a more stable system and assistance from Novell the company with any problems. It's not that expensive honestly, plus SLED is a solid choice, I've used it myself for a while but I'm more the tinkerer and into the newest technologies by nature which is why I prefer openSUSE to SLED. SLE=SUSE Linux Enterprise, you have a choice of Desktop (SLED) or Server (SLES). You can always create a new user account and migrate any settings and files you need from the old one - which you can eventually delete. Make sure you use the SAME username as you have now during the install.Įither way, if you do have issues. If there is any issue logging in to your old settings kde or gnome, you can easily try icewm.
#Jbidwatcher install
Gnome should be ok.ĭuring install you can opt out of auto login. I must admit my Microsoft media centre software, basically XP has been up and running for 3 years, without problem.ġ1.0 or 11.1 could be installed and keep /home but you would probably be best to install with kde3 if you use kde? You can add kde4 later if you like. I have tried Microsoft XP as the laptop has a dual boot option. These computers have been working for nearly 3 years without problem using 10.2, I fail to see why upgrades make it necessary to be a 'computer boffin'. The existing installations were done for me - would it be necessary to re-install say jbidwatcher and google earth? Not sure. Once installed would all the settings for kontact,the router etc be kept. The install Partitioner will/should format / (root) If I loaded Suse 11.1 would I get the option to format during installation? Yes. Just keep /home (do not format during install) You will have re-install all 3rd party applications you have.
#Jbidwatcher upgrade
Incidentally, 10.3 will not be supported muchĪre you saying even 10.3 cannot be installed as an upgrade? It's not so much an upgrade - more re-install. I don't understand this, but as 10.2 is no longer getting security upgrades, you > using 10.2, I fail to see why upgrades make it necessary to be a > These computers have been working for nearly 3 years without problem Router and you only need to select DHCP, etc.
Not sure what you mean the router settings. You should take it, then restore your data. When you do the installation, you will have the option ofĬreating a partition for /home.
If /home is not on its own partition, then you should back it
If you have /home in a separate partition, then keep that intact and do User data such as your kontact data is usually kept in the user's home directory > - would it be necessary to re-install say jbidwatcher and google earth? > etc],the router etc be kept.The existing installations were done for me > Once installed would all the settings for kontact,[the mail settings Yes, 11.1 would give you the option of reformatting. For that reason, it is recommended to install, not upgrade, The upgrade from 10.2 to 10.3 should work however, every installation collectsĬrud while running. > If I loaded Suse 11.1 would I get the option to format during e non solo.> Are you saying even 10.3 cannot be installed as an upgrade?
